I've stated any number of times that I don't believe *all* corporations
are evil in the ways I've described. Corporate interests have far too
much power over the lives or ordinary people, especially those in the
lower and middle income groups.

What's the alternative, an all powerful government that controls the
means of production?
We watched that for 74 years in Russia until it totally imploded in on
itself. During that time, the only way they could keep people in line
was with repression and death.

Is everything in life an "either/or" with you?

I am only reflecting your total rejection of the principles of
capitalism and failure to understand the effect of taxes on those
institutions.
I assume it is because you have never successfully run a business and
your failures have made you bitter..

Where did I say I totally reject the principles of capitalism?
Where? Nowhere.

Capitalism has its good and its bad sides. Unfortunately, since the
1980s, we've unleashed aspects of capitalism that for the most part only
benefit the very wealthy. Please don't attempt to dispute that statement
by telling me how low your phone bill is.

Everything in life *does* seems to be "either/or" with you. Probably was
a good idea you hid out in the Coast Guard for a number of years, and
then went to work for a big corporation while it was still in its
Kafka-esque years.
