after that we can talk all the reform in the world you want. Which incidentally will require GOVERNMENT action. Those suggesting, even here, that people will stop using gasoline, for example, when the price sky rockets are being way too Catholic in their praise of the word (Adam Smith) and have never read it... or they'd realize he'd be ranting and raving against the monopoly. Problem is the more I think about it, this organic monopolistic system perhaps is not just part of the problem, but a symptom of how hard it will be to break away from it.
