`The thing I keep running into with libertarians is that
they are purposely blind to the following: if you start
with a weak state and a laissez-faire economy,
eventually megacorporations will coalesce and become a
defacto state, usually fascist and obviously not held
accountable by the democratic process. And the
megacorps will mold and embolden the state so that it
has the authority and agenda to serve them. I don't
have to wonder about the viability of this theory, since
I have discovered that the US is more or less living
proof.' -Daniel Pouzzner

DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER
==========
CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list. Proselytizing propagandic
screeds are unwelcomed. Substance�not soap-boxing�please! These are
sordid matters and 'conspiracy theory'�with its many half-truths, mis-
directions and outright frauds�is used politically by different groups with
major and minor effects spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought.
That being said, CTRLgives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and
always suggests to readers; be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no
credence to Holocaust denial and nazi's need not apply.
Let us please be civil and as always, Caveat Lector.
