The Fascinating History of How Corporations Became "People" -- Thanks to Corrupt Courts Working for the 1% Occupiers could direct their energy not only at Wall Street, but also at its enablers, in Congress, and ultimately, at the high court. Perhaps there were truly free markets before the industrial revolution, where townspeople and farmers gathered in a square to exchange livestock, produce and handmade tools. In our modern world, such a market does not exist. Governments set up the rules of the game, and those rules have an enormous impact on our economic outcomes. In 2007, the year of the crash, the top 1 percent of American households took in almost two-and-a-half times the share of our nation's pre-tax income that they had grabbed in the 40 years folliwing World War Two. This was no accident – the rules of the market underwent profound changes that led to the upward redistribution of trillions in income over the past 30 years. The rules are set by Congress – under a mountain of lobbying dollars – but they are adjudicated by the courts. The Supreme Court, with a right-wing majority under Chief Justice John Roberts, has become a body that leans too far toward the “1 percent” to be considered a neutral arbiter. So whether they know all the ins and outs of the court's profound rightward shift or not, those protesting across the country as part of the Occupy movement are motivated by its corruption as well. While conservatives constantly rail against judges "legislating from the bench," it is far more common for right-leaning jurists to engage in “judicial activism” than those of a liberal bent. That's what a 2005 study by Yale University legal scholar Paul Gewirtz and Chad Golder found. According to the scholars, those justices most frequently labeled "conservative" were among the most likely to strike down statutes passed by Congress, while those most frequently labeled "liberal" were the least likely to do so. A 2007 study by University of Chicago law professor Thomas J. Miles and Cass R. Sunstein looked at the tendency of judges to strike down decisions by federal regulatory agencies, and found a similar trend. The Supreme Court's "conservative" justices were again the most likely to engage in this form of "activism," while the "liberal" justices were most likely to exercise judicial restraint.

How can I help?
They will readily admit it's an extremely flawed system and needs to be totally destroyed, yet they seem to want it to be present everywhere else in the world. By military might if necessary and all without our taxes going up.

Yet they want a huge military spread all over the world enforcing our system on others. Who wants that?
Why are you posting hit and run, insulting statements concerning another thread in a different and irrelevant thread? This is my thread and I give my permission for posters to post whatever they want.

Lack of congruence won't be confined to a single thread it seems.

LOL! Sorry, but you own nothing here.
Oh, the Tea Partiers are now antiwar? I fail to see where their candidates or their actions back that up.

Here, let me help... Who are you pulling for in 2012?
I did, yet you two are addressing points made in it, here. I'm simply asking why? No need to complain to anyone, I'm enjoying myself.
Says who? I did. I thought you saw it. If not...
BTW, I thought you should know this... I agree, corporations are not people and should not be considered people.
Amazing. Has it ever occurred to you that Congress has in the past and are to this day passing unconstitutional legislation? I could list many, but you probably are already aware of them. So do you think it's somehow par for the course that conservatives, who by the very definition of the word are the ones who want to preserve the constitution, and the institutions and traditions that came with America's founding, would be more likely to strike down unconstitutional legislation over a period of years? I would certainly hope they would do just that. Does it bother you, that with the massive amount of unconstitutional legislation that has already been passed, that the left doesn't seem as interested in striking any of it down?

Yet the Pubby controlled Scotus said that a piece of paper that owes it's very existence to the state has free speech when it comes to donating money to that same Congress. And there is nothing that King Paul can do about it other than appointing more judges.

I hope that you noted that I said 'conservative' not Republican.
The definition of which changes with the wind. And directly leads to the 'Divided We Fall' scenario.

And that is clearly unconstitutional and anti-American. America was founded on individual rights, not rights assigned as part of any group. And there is nothing that King Paul can do about it other than appointing more judges. Sure there is. I've already stated that the bully pulpit and the backing of a large and loud American public can go a long way. We've seen it time and time again.
The definition of which changes with the wind. The definition of Republican certainly seems to change with the wind. The definition of Conservative has not changed.
Depends on who is using the word.

No, it doesn't. American conservatism is a set ideology. There are no gray areas. One is either a conservative or something else pretending to be a conservative. If one pretends, or lies to try to pass his own philosophy off as conservative, that cannot change the definition of the set ideology of conservatism.

We're talking American conservatism. There is only one time frame.
Maybe we should conserve the attitudes expressed and laws created during the era of the Indian Wars and the expansion of the US. There's still a few left and now many are more than just land rich.

I will apologize for something I haven't done when hell freezes over, pisher. When you accuse me of things like, lying and plagiarism, post documented proof that I did so, when I copy and paste something, it's usually about the issue of the thread and there is a link either at the top of what I copy, or SOURCE link at the bottom. It's easy to call people liars, lets see you back up your bull shit with facts!
"OWS! Liberals! Their goal is to find a way to live within the means of the working class rich, but without the work."
How about you set an example and back up your tag line with FACTS.

when a dim like you decided to blame Robin for my discovery of your real name. You love to create chaos and if there is one thing you do almost as well as try to pass another's work off as your own, it's the game of making rash accusations. I remember seeing you in other nicks and the one you use now with all kinds of plagiarism including quotes. You have gotten heat which is the only thing that got you to try to tone down. This is likely a lifelong game you do including using what you find on the Internet in real time being passed off as your work to impress friends and family. You are so into it, you will only resentfully be careful about how you do it, not stop. There is also the little matter of your attack threads trying to paint me as any McCarthy in the nation on a sex offender's list as me using the 'throw it and see if it sticks' method of slander. You are unethical and insane, and that is on your good days.
It's easy to call people liars, lets see you back up your bull shit with facts! Yeah right. You steal a quote, change a word and call it your own.

If you have documented proof of this then put up, or shut up. You damn dumb stupid internet agitating whore, there isn't a word any of us can post that hasn't already been posted somewhere on the WWW net, but if there is anything in particular that you are refering to that I have done on purpose, then post that g-damn thing to prove your point, otherwise, SHUT THE FUCK UP you STUPID TWAT!
"OWS! Liberals! Their goal is to find a way to live within the means of the working class rich, but without the work."
We have all seen your little 'Rebel Gal' name added as the author of other people's quotes done up in illustrations and the deliberate lack of accreditation for the work of others. Pinging Stone to try to save you from yourself and looking bad with immature insults that show your lack of class only backfires on you. I also didn't mention how you tried to blackmail me into never posting to you with junk you accused of being mine in a forum I had never seen before and had no interest in. That little bit of a failed attempt to go after me with manufactured bait failed miserably and is typical of how you work on line. Mininggold is a far more literate and mature woman then you will ever be. And you prove that part yourself with this last post full of childish insults alone. No one need bothering to take out the garbage again with even more taking you to task when you steal the work of others. You should save this game of self aggrandizement for times you want to impress real time friends impressionable enough to be fooled by deliberate lack of citation in your use of other's work. The game doesn't work when you post in forums.
Are you stretching the truth again? Why don't you document it or shut up about it.
I haven't. Where is that at? Didn't you say this place wasn't even worth lurking as long as Happy Quanza was posting here?
And why don't you let her fight her own battles. I've already indulged in the level of documentation that's normal for conservatives on this forum. Her posts are far too evil for me to want to be saturated with them all at once.

Ok I understand. You can't document it. It is obviously a lie. Thanks for confirmation.
Nobody confirmed anything unless you don't understand English. It's already been documented by many on this forum. Do your own research, if you enjoy wading through her garbage.

I haven't seen any documentation. If you can document it post it when you use it. Thanks in advance.
Of course you haven't. You admit yourself that you don't keep up on posts here or, I guess due to laziness or maybe lack of reading skills.

You miss the point; we have seen this aspect of her as long as we have known her early in the history of eLPee. And you sarcastically calling us all liars here just shows what an idiot you are. We don't have to make you happy. If you want to pretend otherwise about this person's posting history, it's on you; not us. I suppose it would make you happy to see people frantically digging for her nuggets of plagiarism manure, but you don't pull our strings my boy. It's just that simple. And as for the worthiness of your forum, you do have a very petty and poorly run show here. And this is just the facts. HQ is who he is because you encourage him and set up this dog and pony show to be so dysfunctional. And this is also on you, not us.
This sort of baiting by him is typical of Stone. If he wants a forum where mammy calls other woman here really obscene and nasty names and then pretend it is some sort of wrong to call her this minor nickname in return, it is his problem, and his own lack of good ethical standards he need worry about.
He loves company while he wallows in the gutter. I have found out that all the explanations in the world will do no good. He and Murron, the 'Sherlock Holmes' of the internet continues to prove my point about Tea Party/TeaBaggers, so I'm happy.

A 2007 study by University of Chicago law professor Thomas J. Miles and Cass R. Sunstein looked at the tendency of judges to strike down decisions by federal regulatory agencies, and found a similar trend. The Supreme Court's "conservative" justices were again the most likely to engage in this form of "activism," while the "liberal" justices were most likely to exercise judicial restraint.

Yet the Pubby controlled Scotus said that a piece of paper that owes it's very existence to the state has free speech when it comes to donating money to that same Congress.

I hope that you noted that I said 'conservative' not Republican.
#38. To: We The People (#37)
The definition of Conservative has not changed.
#39. To: lucysmom (#38)
Depends on who is using the word.
#40. To: We The People (#39)
No, it doesn't.
#41. To: mininggold (#40)
Actually it changes according to the time frame of history it is meant to 'conserve'.
#42. To: We The People (#41)
We're talking American conservatism. There is only one time frame.
#43. To: mininggold (#11)
I just love how you 'conservative' Teabaggers refuse to take any personal responsibility, resist any show of remorse or apology and try to blame others when caught in a lie.

It's easy to call people liars, lets see you back up your bull shit with facts!

I will apologize for something I haven't done when hell freezes over, pisher. When you accuse me of things like, lying and plagiarism, post documented proof that I did so, when I copy and paste something, it's usually about the issue of the thread and there is a link either at the top of what I copy, or SOURCE link at the bottom.

Yeah right. You steal a quote, change a word and call it your own.

We have all seen your little 'Rebel Gal' name added as the author of other people's quotes done up in illustrations and the deliberate lack of accreditation for the work of others.
#51. To: A K A Stone (#49)
Are you stretching the truth again? Why don't you document it or shut up about it.
#52. To: mininggold (#51)
#53. To: A K A Stone (#52)
Ok I understand. You can't document it. It is obviously a lie. Thanks for confirmation.
#54. To: mininggold (#53)
#55. To: A K A Stone (#54)
I haven't seen any documentation. If you can document it post it when you use it. Thanks in advance.

"Of course you haven't. You admit yourself that you don't keep up on posts here or, I guess due to laziness or maybe lack of reading skills."

This sort of baiting by him is typical of Stone. If he wants a forum where mammy calls other woman here really obscene and nasty names and then pretend it is some sort of wrong to call her this minor nickname in return, it is his problem, and his own lack of good ethical standards he need worry about.
