It doesn't really matter how much or how little say you have. If the
company is doing well, you share in the gains just like all of the
other owners. If it's not doing well you vote with your telephone and
sell the stock. Essentially you just fired the management.

Doing well only refers to one aspect of a corporation's performance,
typically. The problem is that corporations have become the actual
government in many countries, such as this one, and corporate actions
are destroying the middle class.

Right, let's do...nothing.

Doing nothing is better than doing the wrong thing. Ethanol still has
not proved it's value.

Ethanol is a ruse. We should be investing in switchgrass or algae
production and refinement.


Why not CNG, it is cheap, clean and we have plenty of it?

Why not invest in something we can grow instead of ripping apart the
earth's crust while spoiling the water table with toxins and dangerous
gases?

Because we are going to run out of water long before we run out of
oil.


So, we should make the problem worse by using fracking?


Did you just learn a new word?


? Are you trying to insult me? If so, try again.

I agree there have been some problem in a few places with this but the
majority of the fracking does not hurt anyone.


Some problems? Lots of problems... igniting water from someone's tap
is pretty serious. Don't know about the majority. You mean more than
50%?

Do you know of anything that doesn't affect someone?


Sure. If my cat pees on a bush and I don't know about it, I suspect
nobody is affected. Is that an equivalency attempt you're trying to
make?

Doesn't matter? It matters to me if a stock I'm holding is destroying
the rainforest, but I have no control over the CEO. Selling the shares
doesn't have any affect on CEO salary, for example. They've got their
parachutes and are immune from my small action.

There are other agricultural alternatives to corn ethanol. If we come up

You should buy some stock in some of those big, multi-national
corporations. It turns out that they are all owned by the people,
people just like us.



Right...small individual shareholders have the ability to control big,
multi-national corporations, and Hollywood starlets call me all the time
for dates.

Big, multi-national corporations...that's why everything is working out
so well. I prefer public ownership of the public's resources, the
public's highways, the public's schools, the public's hospitals, the
public's airports. et cetera.

When "the system" favors only the rich, when the middle and lower income
classes are regressing, when able-bodied, willing workers cannot find
decent, family supporting jobs, all because of the greed at the top,
it's time for serious, heavy duty change.


You are an idiot.

Pro-choice and pro-abortion are not competing concepts.
I think the choice of whether to get an abortion is up to the pregnant
female. So, I obviously am pro-choice. I think safe abortions should be
available to pregnant females everywhere. So, obviously, I am pro-abortion.

But that doesn't mean I am in favor of "forced" abortion, as your

Really? Corporations are the government here? Do they maintain the
military? Make laws? That's about the most stupid statement you've made
about the U.S.A. and everyone here knows you hate this country. You CAN
leave you know?

Slavery used to be "legal" in this country until we made it illegal.

Slavery is still practiced around the world. Why am I not surprised that
you are not concerned with the condition of man outside the USA?


My comments were about the United States. My comments were not about the
rest of the world. Since my comments were limited, you have no idea
whether my concerns extend to the rest of the world. Your response was
not logical.


Are you pro slavery outside the USA?

We can change the negative impacts corporations have on society.

Why would we want to devolve to an agrarian society? Why do you want to
return to the days of 18th century?

Again, your comment is not logical. I offered no suggestion that we go
back to an agrarian society. I do believe we can control corporations.


You are always obtuse.


There was nothing obtuse about my statements. When discussing making
slavery illegal, I clearly stated "this country." Perhaps you don't know
what obtuse means.



You obviously have never taken a rigorous course in logic or
participated on a debate team. You would have been laughed out of the
former and kicked off the latter. You have a teabagger's approach to
adult discussion.


You have a hard time with commitment don't you.


You're talking nonsense...again. The subject I raised was directed at
your inability to think logically and to debate. Commitment? Commitment
to what, in the context I raised?

Is your inability to engage in responsible, adult discussion an
outgrowth of your ducking out on formal education or your time in the
marines, or both?


And as usual, Harry starts losing the argument, the insults and name
calling start....

Parse his other statement. Is he inferring that he was a member of a debate
team and that he actually debated?

His closing remark was just too weird to comment on.


Funny, I didn't know debate teams had designated name callers! I would
still like to know what good "being clever" and being able to insult
people with snooty arrogant posturing has ever brought on society? I
mean, I think it's been a couple hundred years since "basket weaving"
and "story telling" (Harrytales, lies) has ever produced anything like a
usable product or jobs...;) Tell me, what is the product of a "clever
elitist name caller"?



Not to worry. No one will ever accuse you of being clever, elitist or
productive.

No, it was just your one word answer to two posts in a row.

Ok. In any case, I pointed out that that technique isn't

More than "a few problems." I'm happy to entertain the notion of
fixing the problems with fracking. Perhaps they can start by
disclosing the chemical mix they use.

Do you know of anything that doesn't affect someone?


Sure. If my cat pees on a bush and I don't know about it, I suspect
nobody is affected. Is that an equivalency attempt you're trying to

I am trying to say "energy" is never going to be free of costs or even

The problems I have heard are mostly because they were fracking too
close to the surface and in residential areas.

any problems..
