Corporations are our country’s main problem

It is obvious that those who talk the most about the Constitution have never read or understood it. “We the People in order to form a more perfect union,” means that all rights belong to the people and that when you form a union one must give up some individual rights in order to gain better rights that a cooperative union can provide.

Conservatives say that anything not mentioned in the Constitution does not exist. Here are some things not mentioned in the Constitution: corporations, insurance, free markets, free trade, any type of business except religion and the press.

The government is not charged with spreading or suppressing any type of social, economic, political or religious system here or around the world. The government is only obligated to protect the whole people and the Constitution and not any business.

We have a massive problem in this country known as corporations. Just as the financial corporations collapsed our economy, so will the health insurance corporations if they are not brought under control.

Corporations are a problem because in their pursuit of profits they have not and never will learn four little words: Stop. Go no farther.
