If that's what your going with though it's fine... though pretty misofrmed in a lot of areas... espiecally if your goal is a better econonomy. 1) End Corporate Personhood. Kinda impossible unless you want to repeal the first ammenedment. 2) Glass Steagal was repealed under the "Financial Modernization Act" with widespread bipartisan support because it was an overly restrictive and stupid law that put our banks WAY behind the banks of basically every other country in the world. I mean, maybe you haven't been paying attention but this thing passed called the "Volcker Rule". Which is like a mini "glass stegal" but even then there is huge worry it will greatly hurt the economy vs europe, once europe settles it's government spending problems. 3) End the Bush and Reagan tax cuts. Bush cuts? Might help the deficit, might also cause GDP growth to stutter for a couple years... depends how permamnetn people were expecting them to be. Reagan "cuts". That's just a polite way to say tax raise at this point... and that would definitly send us into a double dip. 4) Infrastructure building on a national level is largely pointless and stupid as you end up with countless "bridges to nowhere"... hell even state governments have a hard time doing it. Rebuilding infrastructure is fine, but you've got to find a lot better way of doing it then the way that's being used now. 5) Why? High frequency trading means that when you want to sell for 34.54 you sell for 34.54. Rather then 32.10 because your human on the floor stockbroker was too slow/had to many clients/wasn't heard. Or that you definitly get the sale you want and the price you want because it's done immediatly. 6) I'm not sure why you think this would help the economy. As for the beating and raping parts. Which countries are you talking about that we have FTA with. Not that I don't believe you, i'm just curious. Though I would note that the vast majority of people at sweatshops and the like are there by choice just like any other job. You've got to ask yourself what happens to those people when the money dries up... and it isn't like here where the government gets your back for the nessessities. It's just like the when we had the big anti-child labor campaigns... we greatly lowered child labor in some developing nations. At the price of greatly increasing child mortality rate, because the large amount of orphans and people with noone to look after them had no way to get what they needed to survive. 7) The anti-sherman act is still on the books... and still being enforced? See the recent block of the AT&T/T-mobile move by the government? |
I will end this now because of your thought of corporations being people. They are not and where born in a lawyers office. Already clear to see we will not see eye to eye.. Corporations own our politicians because of this ruling. It has nothing to do with the first amendment. SO peace.
