We Live among 'Economic Giants' that create 'Haves' and 'Have-nots'.

We Live among 'Economic Giants' that create 'Haves' and 'Have-nots'. They are 'Persons' in 'Contemplation of Law' and are protected by the 'Constitution'. They are 'Persons' but, not like 'You' or 'I'. They do not 'Hurt', have Pain, diseases, hungers, require sleep, and they do not need Education, or a Roof over their 'heads'. They are the 'Business Corporations'; the 'greatest producers' and Manufacturers of 'Everything' Humans need to 'Survive' and then 'Some'. The 'Some' refers to 'really' unnecessary Items but, which produce 'Profits' and that's the 'name of the Game'. 'Business Corporations' are 'Profit Making machines'. If a Corporation is not making a Profit its immediately 'Dissolved','Killed', and maybe even 'Resurrected' with another 'Name'. We are Persons also but without the 'economic advantages' of 'Corporate Life'. Everyday a Business Corporation must produce, sell, and makes a 'Profit'. But, do all Human Beings, as Persons, have that advantage. We used to ride in 'Carts', 'Wagons', and Horses. Now we ride in Automobiles, but with different 'Horse-power'. We got the 'Auto' but kept the 'Horse-Power'. Human Values have been 'attenuated' and replaced by Corporate Values and the 'height' of Corporate value is 'More and more of the same', viz., Profits. I asked if greed was the result of 'Democracy' or the 'Human Condition'. Maybe its the result of our 'Corporate Economy'? Hey, in todays World, Corporations are necessary but maybe they should also have 'Democratic Duties' within the 'structure' of their 'Nature' as 'Constitutional Personhood' and not just make 'Profits'. If they don't want to be Democratic, just Dissolve them.
