14. It should be outlawed. Water and energy: too vital to be privatized.
America needs to take a real good look at its purpose. The business of America may be business, but what is the purpose of that business? To make a few immensely wealthy while others starve?

A business that declares a profit that debits the nation is a parasite which will bleed the nation dry and kill it.

Corporations that claim the bottom line has improved while former workers line up for welfare because unemployment has expired.....sorry. What are they doing for America, again?

Corporations that gloat over profits while leaving huge scars on the landscape or poison in the water, land, or air cost US. So what are they doing for America, again?

Corporations are not necessarily anyone's friend. Corporations unchecked are always the enemy.
