A Democratic government is not a Business.

A Democratic Government is not a Business; its a Political Institution established for the 'sole purpose' of Governing. A Political Institution has a 'political Form' and that form is 'described' in the Constitution. A Democratic form of Government is a Government "of the People"; "by the People"; and "for the People". In other words, Democratic Government is 'Representative Government'. There is no other 'reason' for the existence of a Democratic government. If there were 'no Peoples', their is no need for a 'Democratic Government'. Whereas, a Business Entity is established for the sole purpose of making Profits; lots of Profits. The Business Corporation is 'created' by Law for the purpose of consolidating Profits and increasing the 'economic grasp' of the corporate structure. That's why they are considered as 'Persons' and are protected by Constitutional Law. Of course, the Law also considers them as 'Legal Fictions' and are deemed 'existent' only in 'contemplation of Law', and incidentally, can exist 'perpetually'. Is it any wonder that no 'Real Individual' can 'compete' with them, nor can Real Individuals 'exist perpetually'. Now listen very carefully; an Economy needs business corporations to amass great Profits; however a Democracy does not need the 1%. Consequently; a Corporate CEO has no business in Politics. A CEO thinks in economic terms only and has no Political knowledge. There might be an exception to this last statement, but its unlikely that a Millionaire or Billionaire is also a 'Good Statesman'. We've had a few, but you can count them on the fingers of one hand( and you won't need all your fingers). How sad, a Government more concerned with 'shuffling Money'; destroying existing 'Economic Programs'; increasing Corporate Profits; reducing Corporate Taxes, is 'not concerned' with the 'General Welfare' of its People. That's the kind of 'business thinking', or 'CEO thinking' that leads to Oligarchy; Plutocracy; or the 'fattening' of the 1%. Where are the Real Statesmen?
