What would happen if we asked the
executives of the giant U.S. corporations, whose products constantly surround
us, to show some corporate patriotism?
After all, General Electric,
DuPont, Citigroup, Pfizer and others demand that they be treated as “persons”
under our Constitution and our laws. And, they expect unfiltered loyalty from
American workers even to the point of blocking the organization of unions so
workers can band together for collective bargaining.
Moreover, many of these
corporations expect to be bailed out by American taxpayers when they are in
trouble, and they regularly receive a covey of direct and indirect government
subsidies, giveaways and complex handouts.
Really want to read the whole thing.
