You take Halliburton -- a company that specializes in oil related services -- and give them a no-bid contract (No Bid!) to feed our troops!
Why no bid? Was there no other business capable of providing food to our troops?
$27 billion! Yikes! That's how much revenue this oil service company generated from its no-bid contracts.
What kind of thanks to they show to tax paying Americans who footed that bill? Halliburton moved its corporate Headquarters from Texas to Dubai! Dubai! Geez....
Now the Supreme Court says corporations like Halliburton are "people." What? If we have a court that says that a corporation is a person, then we need to change the law. Thats all folks. Change the law so that activist judges on the Supreme Court cannot misconstrue the Constitution, or the meaning of "We the People. . . "
End activist courts like the Roberts Court.
Take back the definition of "People"
Take back our right to free speech. A real human being, i.e. a real person, should not have his voice drowned out by big money.
Do we have an "Animal Farm Democracy?" Everyone is equal, but some are More Equal than others." George Orwell must be turning in his grave.
Take back America from both sides. Both are pandering to the money instead of the people.
