there are so many things going on that it's really hard to get a clear thought out.

we are in trouble with american standards today. there are none. the american people are losing out. i've been reading and seeing the damage wal-mart has been doing to all of us; and most of us don't even realize it. there is no consequences for big corporations like this one and others like it.

the most we can do is stop shopping there. i said before we the people have the power to destroy any corporation with our spending habits.

but aside from that there needs to be policies set in place. the leaders of this country should keep the people 1st in their minds. i was talking to a friend who asked me if i would support a luxury tax on companies making record profits of over 1 billion dollars. i didn't agree at first, but after thinking about it and reading about these fascist corporations. i do see an indispensable need to control them.

I would implement

a luxury tax on corporations like wal-mart; a percentage per billion dollars made in profit – to be used only for social security, health care, and education for americans

establish a higher minimum wage policy for these capable companies.

hold them to strict punishable policies of accountability for cutting jobs to maximize profit, when the employees they layoff are the reason for their profits and damaging the strength of america. corporations need to be more responsible with the lives of their employees.

offer the opportunity to relieve the luxury tax in place of providing adequate health care and benefits to their employees that meet the standards of american living.

then we will see some changes in corporate greed.
