      hm, not sure if you're joking, but when such rankings were published first, most people said it's scary that corporations are richer than governments

          Yes, I am aware and no I'm not joking. Why the fuck would I want a huge government?

          * Note. Though GDP is not the size of the government.

                  Hey, Dennis. What's going on bro? :-)

                  Not surprised. This same list has been posted here a few times over the years. Just taking the opposite side of "most people said it's scary that corporations are richer than governments".

                      As you so nicely put it.. "Fuck that!"..

                      Having quite enough of the government in my bedroom, television, radio, wallet, etc.. We're #1 alright...

                          Interesting stats and interesting reaction. It's no surprise to me that governments are the top richest "corporations". They make "profits" from taxing people. And the same dumb people vote them in. Why would you be surprised?
