Got that? he wants to cut taxes on capitol gains.

Yes. We all stipulate he wants to lower taxes.

But wanting to lower taxes does not equal being a corporate shill. You didn't address any of the examples I gave you of his criticizing corporate power.

"The key to sound environmental policy is respect for private property rights. The strict enforcement of property rights corrects environmental wrongs while increasing the cost of polluting."

Yeah, that makes a lot of sense. not.

It makes a good deal of sense if you listen to his argument. His justification for environmental policy within a libertarian framework is that (and these are his words) corporations cannot be allowed to make environmental changes that affect everyone else's property. He wants to make polluting corporations liable for damages to private property.

Government as an institution is particularly ill-suited to combat bigotry. Bigotry at its essence is a problem of the heart, and we cannot change people's hearts by passing more laws and regulations.

Do you think government is good at making windows into people's souls and combating bigotry?

It is the federal government that most divides us by race, class, religion, and gender. Through its taxes, restrictive regulations, corporate subsidies, racial set-asides, and welfare programs, government plays far too large a role in determining who succeeds and who fails. Government "benevolence" crowds out genuine goodwill by institutionalizing group thinking, thus making each group suspicious that others are receiving more of the government loot. This leads to resentment and hostility among us.

Wow, you've proven to me that he's against affirmative action, which I already knew (and it's one of the reasons I wouldn't vote for him).

However, since the topic here was that he is against unfettered corporate power, and I provided several instances from a single interview backing that up (and will happily provide more from other interviews), and you have shown that he:
1. wants to lower taxes
2. plans to use private property rights as a tool against corporate pollution
3. is a barely-concealed racist

I'd say I've carried my point, since my quotes address the subject at hand and yours either do not or prove my position.
