That       includes corporations that are also very rich.              Any country that votes in governments that represent the minority of its       citizenry - the wealthy - is either very stupid or believing that those who are       wealthy are going to 'share their wealth'. They will NEVER share their wealth.        That's one of the ways they became wealthy.              So the answer for the majority of people in any country is: elect a government       that will represent the majority of the people in your country.       Not a difficult concept. For those who can think for themselves.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
