Lashawnda Anteby: Bobby, please research Enron and you'll discover that the only way corporations like Enron can become corrupt is with government. Research "mark to marketing" which enable Enron to become what it was. Even though mark to marketing is an outright fraud, the government is now implementing it with their financial bail outs. Absurd.
Cecil Derenzi: In terms of personal bias, I see no difference between the two. They're both entities that seek to acquire money and power and are often deceptive in their practices. And yes, you're right, the type of person attracted to corporate or political life is unsavory.
Ayesha Genova: i view them both in the same light, actually. it is the corrupt, ruthless and power-hungry people within those two organizations that are at fault.
Moises Rupinski: Government. The reason being that a corporation's sole purpose is to make money. They may be only after money, but why else would they be there?
Daren! Ventrice: I don't trust Obama at ALL. Government is NOT there to run our country, that is OUR job! America is about freedom, not socialism.
Arnette Dominici: I have a lot of contempt for both, but I think I have more for corporations. As you've pointed out, at least government as a mandate of public service they pretend to live up to, and government's leaders are elected by the people. Also, lately corporations seem to care more about their stock holders than they do about their customers.
Veta Slicker: I don't understand the corporate hate. Every publicly traded corporation is owned by the public, in one way or another. It's our 401k's and pension plans that own these things. The majority of people work for them as well.
Leann Villalta: Government is power and coercion, in and of itself. The only way corporations can assume power over citizens is with the support of government.
Jed Mutone: Corporations entice us to buy their products. Gover! nments forcibly tax us for who knows what. There's your answe! r.
Ronnie Panas: I fear big government far more than big business. In our (at least for now) free economy, if we don't like a business we can take our patronage to a competing business. Businesses can't raise our taxes, regulate our lives and take away our freedom. Government can.
Rosella Figliola: Corporations make jobs, and thus for those still working create incomes................Government robs everyone of your hard earned monies to go towards whatever crap they deem necessary to further their own power. Hence, Government as it is no longer working for we the citizen, we the voter, we the people.
Dick Ovdenk: I admit I'm more biased against corporations...When you look at how many Enrons are out there.. especially recently... and the number of private corporations who have robbed from their own employees and shareholders....And those CEO's who have actually driven their own companies into the ground, but personally made off with millions....There is ! NO accountability for these people... and it usually takes the GOV'T to ultimately bring these people to justice.Our government is there to protect us and they ARE accountable to us by our votes. We STILL have check and balances BUILT IN to our system. So, I have much more faith in gov't....Show more
Cyndy Grimes: Government. At least with corporations we have the option of not participating... i.e., not buying their products, services, stocks, bonds, etc. Not so with the government.
Nicolasa Henke: It looks more likely that gov't would commit crimes lately. I have nothing against free enterprise and big business.
Rolanda Merritt: Personally, I am biased against corporations. With the government, I at least have the ability to "vote the bums out" (whoever the bums may be).With buisness, only the major shareholders can do this....Show more
Violette Vanek: Isn't Obama making sure that they become one of the same?
