Freedom Idea. Corperations are what hold our Economy together, not the poor middle class. Corporations are the reason we have everything we have today. which is why why we should keep this practice and even cut taxes for corporations. Without Corporations The USA/Canada Could become Third world countries.
Horrible idea. The idea of government representing economic ownership and institutional power instead of the people is a new form of feudalism. People have good cause to not fully trust ownership and management of their employers to represent the social optimum. Besides, a miner and a steel worker probably have more in common with each other than they have with the mine owner and a mill owner, respectively. Class identity is real, as says the late Paul Fussell, from top to bottom:
1. Upper out-of-sight... really, really old money that does not go in for lavish display.
2. Upper -- people rich without ever been a member of any 'lower' class, of course through inheritance. Business executives are often here.
3. Upper-middle -- successful entrepreneurs who have 'made it' of their own efforts and high-level entrepreneurs (typically in medicine and law, also the successful university professors)
4. Middle -- small-business owners, professionals less successful (like accountants, dentists, engineers, geologists, computer programmers, and most 'educators') and successful salespeople
-- There is no lower middle class, a class that existed when clerks had the privilege of 'solid' high-school educations. Teachers and engineers have gone middle-class, and clerks have gone typically into the class of their spouses.
5. High-prole: skilled workers, blue-collar supervisors, operators of really-complex machinery (like construction cranes and locomotives), nurses, police, fire-fighters, and prison guards
6. Mid-prole: semi-skilled workers who operate machines (even if the machines are cash registers or taxi cabs) or work on assembly lines
7. Low-prole. Laborers, cleaners, and servants who have at least seasonal work.
8. Destitute. People who depend upon suspect income, such as welfare or crime; the homeless. They manage to keep nominal freedom. Even gangsters who might have huge incomes typically have the hallmarks of this class: little education, low intelligence, and superstition.
9. Bottom out-of-sight. Such people are incarcerated in prisons, mental wards, and long-term hospital care.
...Does anyone think that a construction laborer who pushes a wheelbarrow has much in common with the real estate tycoon, or that a dairy laborer has much in common with the owner of the dairy? Corporatism suggests such.
