How many people here feel that something is wrong with the corporate structure in the US? Before the 70s, most organizations made good money on the products and services they sold. During the 70s, there were the conglomerates and now it is just one acquisition or another.

I don’t know about you but I have seen my salary decrease in terms of buying power. The products I am purchasing are from other countries and are of poor quality. Have you truly been in a store lately where the clerk treated you like you were the customer vs. making you feel like you are lucky she is there? Sure, the US Corporations are taking a % of the profits from these sales but truly is it enough to keep the company a float? Or, are corporations using mergers & acquisitions to inflate their financial statements to make their activities look better than they really are?

There are changes the Clinton Administration actively championed that further entrenched corporate power over our economy and government during the decade. He pushed through Congress the NAFTA and the World Trade Organization (WTO) agreements that represented the greatest surrender in our history of local, state and national sovereignty to an autocratic, secretive system of transnational governance. This system subordinated workers, consumers and the environment to the supremacy of globalized commerce.
That was just for starters. Between 1996 and 2000, he drove legislation through Congress that concentrated more power in the hands of giant agribusiness, large telecommunications companies and the biggest jackpot—opening the doors to gigantic mergers in the financial industry. The latter so-called “financial modernization law” sowed the permissive seeds for taking vast financial risks with other peoples’ money (ie. pensioners and investors) that is now shaking the economy to recession.

How do I go about making an initial public offering? Would a merger between two businesses be the same as making a corporation? How do I guarantee the independence of my workers in a corporate environment?
