i really hope eliot spitzer is kerry's AG, if only because of this quote: |
|
"if a corporation is convicted of repeated felonies that harm or endanger the lives of human beings or destroy our environment, the corporation should be put to death, its corporate existence ended, and its assets taken and sold at public auction."

1. We could do a lot worse than Elliot S as Kerry's Atty General |
|
I just don't know if the Dems are really ready to take on the bad guys for real, rather than just talking.

4. It sure would be gutsy |
|
for them to appoint him.
I think Spitzer would be great, but doesn't he want to run for governor of NY?

2. That has a wonderful ring to it. |

Corporations have vastly outlived their intended purposes. Since they cannot die, their legacies can inflict injury upon a multitude of generations.

Seems kind of odd - how would business get done and money raised for new R&D programs - health care, vaccines, ect?

3. I never heard this quote but it's a reason I've been for this appointment |
|
Everytime I seen Spitzer on C-Span, I wish for him to take Asscrofts place.

5. Why shouldn't corporations be subject to the same as a person? |
|
They want all of the privileges of a person, then accept the bad with the good.
