Re: What makes you think there is a choice

what a lot of people don't seem to grasp is that our nation, at the current time, is for the corporation, by the corporation and of the corporation.
Oh I think plenty of people grasp that, they're either apathetic and thereby disinterested in the political process, or so focused on their own financial welfare that they've convinced themselves that everything in the pursuit of wealth (even if it tramples other basic human rights) is a-ok. This either has to be addressed, or the latter bunch of humans will lead this civilization into nose-dive decline (which clearly has started IMHO).

  I appreciate the responses and acknowledge that we are a nation of corporate interests what I have a difficult time with is that this willful trend toward short term profits has only one natural conclusion as is currently obvious in nations with far less choice than ours – the outcome is a decline in our economic viability.

Today countries like Japan have national goals of reaching Gig service throughout the country while we are often lucky to have 200 Kbps
