Buisness victims of Big Goverment: The Evidence Files

[Bobby-Joe]

This week we have two examples of honest businesses being used like a crack whore by out of control big government

Victim #1
Union Carbine.
First UC was raped to the tune of $350 million by the Indian government for a freak accident that no one could have foreseen. All because of a mere handful of people, something like 500,000, were exposed a whiff or two of deadly corrosive gas. To add insult to injury seven Union Carbine executives have been convicted of negligence by some Indian kangaroo court and sentence to TWO years in jail!

Victim #2

British Petroleum
Using the flimsy excuse of an oil spill the Marxists Thugs on the Obama administration have beaten $20 billion (as in "b") dollars from BP. This ghastly act of corporate rape is unparalleled in American History. We can just as well start issuing the Das Kaptials and raises the Swastikas over country now comrades. Obama just stole the food out of mouths of the BP investors children.

Fortunately people are taking a stand against evil.

Representative Barton R-Texas spoke TRUTH to power yesterday

rapping up, Barton said: "I apologize. I do not want to live in a country where any time a citizen or a corporation does something that is legitimately wrong, is subject to some sort of political pressure that is, again, in my words — amounts to a shakedown, so I apologize."

Barton is a REAL American patriot. He knows companies like British Petroleum are what make America Great.

The New York Times is sums it up

http://www.nytimes.com/2010/06/18/us/18assess.html?hp

The Wall Street executives who needed the government to prop them up, but still thought their services were worth millions a year, were cast by Mr. Obama as a shameless privileged class. Toyota was described as seeking profits over safety; Wellpoint, the insurance giant, was castigated for seeking to insulate itself from the new health care legislation by taking actions that the law will soon prohibit.

Yes executives are privileged. But that is because they are hard working REAL Americans and the Atlas upon whom the rest of America gets its free ride from.

[...][H]e will have to avoid painting with such a broad brush that foreign and domestic investors come to view the United States as a too risky place to do business, a country where big mistakes can lead to vilification and, perhaps, bankruptcy.

QUOTED FOR THE TRUTH!! America is about inactivation and risk taking. People don't want to be looking over their shoulder and thinking "well what if this kills like 500,000 people in an hour?" No, they want to do the right think, take the gamble and make America that much better. They need to think the government has their back. Not watch out for the socialist nanny state at every turn.

Well you have anymore outrages post them here.

Hear! Hear! God Bless you, Brother Bobby, for saying things the lieberal press refuses to say. One day we will see the great contribution of BP to the great America we all enjoy.

Re: Buisness victims of Big Goverment: The Evidence Files

All I can say to this topic is "Amen!" Ridiculous anti-capitalist regulation by the guvmint has brought American business to its knees. There was a time when companies like mine were allowed to freely dump chemical and nuclear waste into the nearest river or lake, but now not only is this banned, but they force us to clean up the "pollution" from year's past! That's so absurd, because all this toxic waste just washes into the ocean eventually, and people don't live in the ocean, so what is there to worry about? Besides, I've heard that the Great Pacific Garbage Patch has become a kind of tourist attraction, with those Greenpeace boats taking visitors out there for a fee. More entertaining than gay whale-watching, I'm sure.

Fortunately, companies like mine can just move their factories to free nations like China, which take a far more business-friendly approach to environmental regulation.


Let freedom ring!

On the other hand, labor unions are starting to become a problem in China, demanding a minimum wage of $2/day. So we might be moving our factories soon to Burma, where workers expect a more reasonable 20 cents a day, or half that for apprentices under age 12. Furthermore, the Burmese not only don't complain about so-called "water pollution," they've even turned it into a profitable industry.

As you might expect, Big Government has been giving us a hard time importing goods into the USA from Burma. That's because leftist liberal "human rights activists" demand that we don't do business with the "brutal" Burmese government. Fortunately, we've been able to get around this problem by first sending the Burmese goods to Saipan, to have 100% "Made-in-USA" labels attached and then shipped to the US West Coast duty-free. Good thing those Chinese and Filipino workers in Saipan don't dare join labor unions, or we deport them.

I personally think that the solution to all these bungling bureaucratic regulations is to let industry "self-regulate." We did it on Wall Street, and our profits took off like a rocket. I see no reason why companies can't decide for themselves what to do about toxic waste and uppity labor unions. After all, if you can't trust Uranus, who can you trust?
