Well I do agree with Mitt Armey
we need to go back to those principles the Founders had. (What? I can already hear you, when did...?
You see the Founders had a certain allergy to powerful corporations. It was to the point that corporations were not formed to be inherited from father to son (we know wimenfolk back then did not vote or have property rights)...It gets better than that. Corporations that were found to do something against the common well being of the community, could be given the death penalty... as in they disappear overnight.
So yup, I agree with Mr. Armey... we need to go back to THAT, when it comes to corporations... Yup, I want to be able to impose the corporate death penalty on bad actors, and stop this shit.
I am sure though that Armey does not quite mean it that way.
In his view we should have them minorities and wimenfolk go back to their role in society, as inferior, and he surely does not mean any of the regulations that have blighted business all over.
But damn, at times I wish people like Mathews actually spoke of things before a certain 1888 Supreme Court Opinion.

3. Armey was incoherent.
It's hard to agree with word salad.

Does she know Wall St is where the George Washington was inaugurated and the Bill of Rights was passed?
So, I'm pretty sure the idea of corporations and private property were well within the considerations of the founders.

I majored in history, and I never heard of a young US "disappearing" troublesome corporations that got too big.
I never heard of any anti-business activities on the part of the US govt.
Now I know DUmmies lie, and they lie all the time. But why rewrite history before the true history books have been burned?
Nads, we all know you pull crazy sh!t outa your a$$. But this is getting certifiable.
You belong in an insane asylum. No one just posts crap like this expecting people to believe you.

You bring the bald dwarf to laughter! Trust me, there was a certain Supreme Court decision in 1888 that explains it all.

Crazy, delusional nads.
Mitt Armey. Mitt Romney? Dick Armey? Salvation Army?
And how did the early United States "make a corporation disappear overnight"? Sounds scary!

I'm still stymied by what Vlada Mitty means by the "powerful corporations."
Corporations as we know them didn't even begin to flourish until a hundred years after the Founding Fathers, and how could they have been against something that wasn't a problem in their time?

She is ****ing nuts, that's the bottom line.

I was thinking the East India Trading Company as an example but they cozied up to the crown.

The Federal government established by the Constitution had no involvement with corporations. Regulation of corporations was, and is, a right reserved to the states. New York State passed the first corporate regulating statute in 1811.
nads, the Batty Koda of San Diego County, should know that. Any trained historian would.

Barry made thousands of them disappear overnight, to China, with the help of his pals at EPA and NFL-CIO.

I am guessing Nads is referring to the Sherman Antitrust Act of 1888 - it is the only thing that makes sense out of her Mick Armromney screed.
However, someone needs to remind Nads that Senator Sherman was an Evil Rethug, and that the focus of the act was to end price manipulation by artificially raising prices by restricting supply (Standard Oil) - Ironically, Obama is doing the same thing with the same product, except he is using the force of the federal government to generate a maze of red tape and egregious laws to meet the same goal.

Somehow, I think the loony "thing" extrapolated the founders firm beliefs in limited government to corporations......
which,...yeah.....did not exist.
*sigh* Where do these people come from?

I won't pretend to understand the Almighty Nads. That would just make my head hurt, trying to make sense out of utter nonsense. It sounds like some revisionist history that the left is so famous for throwing out there.

Since I'm old as dirt, I can remember watching by candlelight as George Washington and Thomas Jefferson discussed this on a black and white TV. They specifically mentioned bringing down General Motors and IBM. There was a video of it on Facebook at one time but I can't find it right now.

They probably made them take it down because of copyright infringement. Bastard government regs!

I would bet they would really be pissed off if they knew why the US Navy was founded. :lmao:
