-Caveat Lector-
Read what was written and what you posted.
90% control does not mean output.
Dogmatic blindness?
<This propaganda nonsense about
monopolies and 'Robber Barons' is bunk.>
Whether they be 'staged' or productive monopolies, the activities of
corporate interests has been detrimental towards the common good.
One's Robber Baron is anothers boss, another's father.
Yes, there are many sides and ways to perceive, but by their fruits ye shall
know.
The basic thrust of Goats post was right on and shows how political, economic
and social forces are used by "interests" to advance their self-interests.

DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER
==========
CTRL is a discussion and informational exchange list. Proselyzting propagandic
screeds are not allowed. Substance�not soapboxing! These are sordid matters
and 'conspiracy theory', with its many half-truths, misdirections 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, CTRL
gives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and always suggests to readers;
be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no credeence to Holocaust denial and
nazi's need not apply.
Let us please be civil and as always, Caveat Lector.
