10. No he had it exactly right. It is the "malefactions of great wealth"
that have destroyed American democracy and all the idealism in the world
doesn't trump money and money buys votes (just ask George Washington). These trusts need to be taxed out of existence. Of course when the Democratic Congress rolled over on its belly for Reagan to get tickled by trickle down economics thinking the unions would profit from
corporate partnership and become "investors" the "grand experiment" was all but lost. Now W. may have put the final nail in its coffin.
