They continue to bail out the bastards, while destroying communities, destroying the people's ability to feed themselves & their families; This is beyond EVIL ... F*#$ing corporations violating the people! The day is coming ... "Those who make peaceful evolution impossible, make violent revolution inevitable."  -- John F. Kennedy -- 1963
