What a joke.

I may have registered for FT a couple years back when I was teaching Corporate Governance at a local university.

I know that I am not officially subscribed because I am not paying them anything.

But I am now in Europe and perhaps there is an automatic paywall for the US????

Sorry about that, if that is the case.

This comes two years after auto makers settled a suit by Nixon's Justice Department for conspiracy to delay the development of pollution-control devices.

The big money folks always run around Henny Penny whenever there are regulations on the horizon. They did it with Teddy Roosevelt. They did it with FDR, who was accused by the elite of waging class warfare and called, loudly and often, a socialist.

In the end, the American economy (and millionaires) did just fine - even with massive taxes on the rich - and the air is infinitely cleaner to boot.

which always increases competition, and that means productivity goes up.

admit that. Begrudgingly.

Like with the breakup of ma bell. If anything there was less productivity and the prices for service stayed the same.

ma-bell was broken up. I can't even begin to compare the land phone service I had during Ma-Bell versus the smart phones of today and how easily I can communicate world-wide. Before any phone call outside of my local community was "LONG DISTANCE Charges".

Business leaders hated him, but in retrospect there is a sense that he "saved capitalism from itself" and was the most important factor in preventing a Communist revolution in the US.

revelation. If only that sense of community had continued through today.

this gist of the article is that not only are her proposals NOT extreme, but that no President can do everything by him/herself because of our built-in electoral controls.

Of course, even that theory may be somewhat strained after we've seen MF45 run rampant over our electoral controls, as he continues to do.

For all the misogyny that will come with Warren. I'm not sure folks understand what will happen.

local elections nationwide. In fact, I think that's why Warren doesn't have even more support than she has right now -- misogyny -- and she's doing quite well.

I think most of us understand what to expect. And I also think Warren can handle it and would prevail should she get the nomination. Those are the things I think, but the one thing I do know for certain is that we must never run away in fear from hatred of any kind. When we do, they win.

that keep us from supporting and voting for an exceptionally qualified candidate just because she is a woman?

Just because?

Nothing else. That they will be forced to do honest, fair business from then on. I wonder if they are asking themsleves "how can we do business without cheating? Impossible!!"
