| Re: Elected Officials have to Go To work said by RayW :I can waste my money with my elected government or I can waste it with your corporation. Last I checked we have no choice but to pay taxes. At least if I do not like the services provided by a private company I can go tell them to shove it. Since taxes are obligatory, government at all levels must be judicious about how that money is spent.
said by RayW :Corporations do have one advantage over local governments, they are not accountable to the people, and if it looks like they do not get their way, they buy a politician or two and get a law tossed on as a hidden rider at the Federal or State level to do what they want, despite what the people want or what may have been the right thing to do. Government does everything it can to kill private enterprise every day. Why is it surprising when shareholders of private companies try to fight back? There's nothing wrong with looking out for your own interests when you have parasites in government trying to leech off your success. -- "At the moment of conception." |
