What word

I read a discussion on Naked Capitalism this morning about the need for a new word to understand the greed of Wall Street Bankers. It is so overwhelming, that current terms do not handle it for our brains. Well, I only partly agree.

Corporations have only one goal and that is profit and corporations possess no conscious. I have come to believe that our Supreme Court in allowing corporations to have the privileges of persons has created this problem. Corporations are a business form that were originally design to last 20 years or less, put together investors to build a railroad for instances. When they got all the protections that an individual is guaranteed by the constitution, our way of life in America changed. Corporations have no loyalty to the community, no sense of the dedication of the workers, no concern about the air or water that would affect the future generations by their nature, Corporations are about profit.

Corporations are also sociopaths. We all are governed by doing the right thing even when no one is present because we have a conscious. We don't go though the red light, we turn in found wallets and we don't dump poisons in the water because we have a conscious.

The health insurance company that cuts off care to a sick person, a banker that tricks a person on the loan or a credit card rate and a pharmacy company that lies about research has no conscious. We living in a society that is controlled by corporations that are sociopaths. It is developed to the point that they have taken over our government starting by the Supreme Court, the Congress and now they control who gets elected President.

The only fear they have is our vote. We can with our vote punish those who act against our best interest. Is it in the interest of our country that one senator, Lieberman, rewrite a health care bill? Or is it in our interest that ten senators want a tax break included in a stimulant bill and in the end don't vote for it anyway? They simply run up the cost. Is it in our interest that corporations hire over 125 former military generals/leaders to lobby at the Pentagon?

The country is broken. All of us feel it.

We have different solutions. Punishment must be given to those that vote against our best interest is the only power we really have. That and rioting in the streets.
