Washington says there was no inflation.
They have all the facts and politicians.

You might consider that big oil has us bent over a barrel with a gas

advantage of it.

Corporations are beholden to their stockholders, not the customer.

Any business is a balancing act between customers, stockholders
(owners), and employees. On top of that, throw in the government,
general public, media and financial services just for good measure.

My advice? Become a stockholder. It's very satisfying to be a
stakeholder in a well run business.

It's also very satisfying to be a stakeholder in a gov't that does
something for people.

Government should be the service provider of last resort for things
that no one else can do. Anything else is socialism.

HK likes government control because he has a chance of getting involved
in the control.

Getting control in a corporation, not going to happen for him.

For military, homeland security, police, fire, environmental
regulation, environmental disasters, mentally ill, poor people,
criminals.... All those things too?

You're suggesting that government should supply us with poor, mentally
ill criminals? Someone else seems to be doing a good job of that
already.
