Yeah like before FDR took on the Robber barons, right? The tea party view of the free market system isn't realistic... without strict regulation there would be huge monopolies, they would charge whatever they wanted because they would crush competition, they would use everything in their power to enslave the world population... it's already happening... you are just too blinded by ignorance to see it. The industrial revolution changed the world in such a fundamental way that our citizenry went from 95% self employed to 95% employed within a generation. There is no way around it... but anyway... I already know this is a fruitless discussion because you and I are both convinced of our own understanding of the world. I HATE what corporations have done to our country and LOVE what they have produced... ain't that a bitch.
