4 decades of abuse, 4 decades of borrowing, 4 decades of spending, no checks and balances, and let us not forget all the entitlement programs, welfare, welfare States, and how this was abused and how many transisitioned themselves into SSD who truly had and has disabilitied with all their children born out of wedlock, and the strain this put on the SSI program targeted for the retiree's, who did everything right......and today if people are living longer they are hated for it..........How many retired Senators, Congressmen, and those who are very rich getting it, the numbers are probably staggering...........

Here in Wisconsin where lots of Industry has moved out since the Reagan era, and subisidiaries of Corporate giants HQ in other States are not paying corporate taxes to the State, we have lost over a quarter billion dollars, maybe more I'm not sure of the figures, but the money they don't pay gets shifted to the residents, and some of this comes in the form of higher property taxes. In otherwords we are paying for them to do business here..............this is a travesty and just more of this political, corporate corruption.

I also heard on a program last night but a guest, there is no way to stop the corporate greed when it comes to McCain stating they could put an end to it.

BS!........There are ways, more ways than one, and the Congress can also create legislation that would give shareholders in these public entities more say about the way they do business, and a voice for what is an acceptable salary for the Ceo and key executives.

They can eliminate S-8 filings, or cut them when a company becomes profitable or is profitable already. They can do alot but first they have to get a grip on what is right and good for not only the investors, but the company, and the economy.

These should be eliminated entirely for BB companies and Pinksheets should be eliminated,,,,,,,,,,,20000 of these OTC companies if you imagine.

They can stop these bums from shortselling, and NSS but making it illegal............they can force these huge corporations to get legal paid audits every 6 months if need be, some skirt around the one year deadline all the time.
