Never, never, NEVER give money to a corporation!

[NightTrain]

Yes, America's corporate population is large and continues to grow. And yes, you see corporations all the time, and they're always begging for your money. But don't give it to them, no matter how desperate they seem!

The overwhelming majority of corporations are addicted to power and greed. If you give them money, they'll just use it to buy politicians. Give instead to those established organizations who are trying to cure the corporations of their power addiction.

Remember, when you give a corporation money, you're just being part of the problem!

3. What? See: Son of Ralph Nadar Time? The sequel?

Better pick & choose your poison as you may and/or fast. Corporations are for all intent effectively intertwined/laced within each other. Your best shot is to go to a portfolio index akin to T. Roe Price and take a look-see as to just which corporate entity is where and investing in what. Even there; be prepared to have your eyes opened and your already realized fears realized confirmed.

I, myself, otherwise endeavor to move in small, elegant circles wherever possible leaving as few a foot & fingerprint as I am able. For me, that is no-less than part of the key.
