I was just thinking, where will we find the 470,000 doctors to care for 47 million more people? Not to mention finding the money to pay them.

My god Woods, it's like all you guys are afflicted with Stockholm Syndrome. Who gives a damn about greedy corporations?

Well, Beks - I happen to work as a management level engineer for a fortune 500 and so probably you would consider me as one of the pigs. I consider myself a successful example of what can happen to you if you work hard after getting the hell out of the witnesses. So, my dear, in this case - I do give a damn.

But I can tell you that those amplified stats over a few CEOs are red herrings for the left (who hate even small business, let alone major enterprise)...the people keeping the economy stable were the normal middle and upper-middle class who are the majority of corporate workers and who are demonstrably north of 100K in family income but also demonstrably south of 250K family income. Many of these are in the general top tier in such companies as mine, with only the tiniest numbers pulling down millions.

Stockholm Syndrome? You almost seem to be saying that I should escape by night from my evil capitolist kidnappers and wait on the street corner for some community organizer to rescue me with socialism.

Worthy of Symbionese Liberation Army pincushion Patty Hearst (aka Tanya) in my books.

I consider myself a successful example of this as well my friend.

Poppycock! I'm not talking about middle class corporate workers. My fiance is employed by a large corporation. I happen to think it's a good one. There are plenty of business's out there that are conscientious, give back to the community, treat their employees well, etc. etc. etc. Talk about a red herring. Who decided that the left hates any who are successful, small business etc.?? I can tell you who, the right! You honestly think that everyone on the left is a welfare recipient? You think there are no business owners, small or major?? Foolishness.

I'm sorry about my amplified stats, I should have said over 400 times more than the average worker.

Heaven forbid you are a plumber that asks the president a tough question.

Also, the system must not be so bad, if these evil pigs in the fortune 500 are providing us in the underclass with so much decent employment in fascist corporate Amerkkka.

Huh, it's a fortune 500 company as well.

What does Joe the dimwit have to do with anything???? He had no aspirations of owning his business, and you know it.

Are you trying to make some kind of intelligent honest point? Because you're not.

John Doe

Ha, ok Burn. Keep loving your captors.

You mean like the ones who sold offices and didn't pay their taxes and then have the gall to call their ideological opponents corrupt? Beks, you are blind.

It proves your statement untrue. The true stockholm syndrome is the so called "underclass" being kept in thralldom by the mental chains of dependence on the political class. Bread and circuses will keep the masses quiet.

He had no aspirations of owning his business, and you know it.

I guess that is why he is now a a published writer, commentator, and motivational speaker. The man had no aspirations beyond showing his ass crack from underneath a kitchen sink. Obviously.
