I am betting you did not really know much about the terrorists who
"organized" companies in the old days.
Arson, intimidation and the general destruction of corporate property
was not unusual.
Don't forget, I grew up with those old guys in the Teamsters.


Petty crimes compared to the horror perpetrated these days by
mulltinational corporations.
