Message Stephen Crockett
The oil industry price gouging, the oil industry mergers, the lack of universal government guaranteed health care, the Iraq War, the faulty election processes, etc. are all caused by excessive Corporate control of American politics. The entire business culture of Corporate America must be changed. American voters should force the change. We must purge all politicians unwilling to stand against the culture of corruption in both the government and the business world. Laws need to be enacted and enforced to change the behavior of Corporate evil-doers. We must by law curb the political power of Corporate money.

The laws against illegal campaign donations and political activities should be severely stiffened. Jail terms of 20 or 30 years should replace small fines or a few months. The legal definitions of price gouging should be tightened and the penalties made severe. We need to re-regulate the activities of irresponsible corporations and industries. We need to put teeth back in anti-monopoly and anti-market manipulation laws. We need a Law and Order reaction to the "culture of corruption" dominating American politics, government and the Corporate business community.
