    As usual, Libertarians want to free everybody so much that will give corporations the ability to control everything and everyone with laws and the state.

    Not me. I've been rallying for 3 years that Obama is just as much a corporatist as the rest of you.

    The problems with "corporatism" will be a factor... as long as we FAIL to control the money which influences virtually ALL politicians.

    It's something that has been obvious, for a relatively long time.

    The government is certainly powerful enough. The problem is that they won't do it because it's not in their interest to do so.

    The only entity that has the power and the inclination to accomplish what you desire is a free people, and we will never be a free people as long as the central government exists in its current form.

    The only question left to answer in the whole equation, is how long will it be before the MAJORITY of Americans (the actual government) realize that catering to "corporations" isn't in their best interests?

    That time IS coming.

    If the central government (those representing the American people) avails itself to the basic needs and concerns of the majority of Americans, things WILL be better. If those who represent us continue to hear only the screaming of hyper-wealthy, vulture capitalists... then there WILL be unrest.

    In case people didn't realize, Bernie Sanders is absolutely correct.

    That is why the people need to take back the government, not weakened it

    Wow, I guess that's a Catch 22 you have there.

    Tell me, in 1776, what did the American people do when we had central corrupt British government in place?

    It can be done.
