“One building. 18,000 corporations.”
Senator Bernie Sanders just now on the Thom Hartmann Show:

"Cayman Islands: There is one building that houses 18,000 corporations. One building. 18,000 corporations. You got that, Thom?

"Alice laughed: "There's no use trying," she said; "one can't believe impossible things."
"I daresay you haven't had much practice," said the Queen. "When I was younger, I always did it for half an hour a day. Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast."
Alice in Wonderland."

Practice, practice, practice.......

2. Can we make Cayman one of the United States?
I bet our military could take them over with little fuss.

3. Could? Probably. Will? Not a chance in Hell.
Considering the US military (since August 1945) has been used to enhance corporate greed, not end it.
