In the United States, large corporations control some members of Congress. All this does is delay the corporation's funeral at our expense.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
So if I die, somebody else from the corporation will take over the business.
I believe Congress has a duty to do so as well; not simply as a body of legislators, but more importantly as a community of friends, neighbors, parents and Americans.
Before Congress cuts funding for Head Start, Social Security, and financial aid for college, we have got to make sure that large, profitable corporations are paying their fair share of taxes.
It is the duty of the President to propose and it is the privilege of the Congress to dispose.
But because our organization has grown so much and in so many different ways, the delegation process places responsibility and authority on the shoulders of people you can watch grow and watch the way they treat others.
Big corporations have money and power to make sure every rule breaks their way; people have voices and votes to push back.
It's Congress' job to keep an eye on the other agencies and the workings of the entire government. It is our constitutional duty.
The problem... is that most members of Congress don't pay attention to what's going on.
I suspect that many corporations have begun to understand that they have an important role to play in the lives of their communities, and that allocating funds to support local groups helps them discharge that function and also burnish their image.
Corporations always are controlling things, and we have the ability every day to do something about that. Every day.
