You're missing an "L" in the headline. Unless it's even dirtier than we thought.
{Thanks Tim. I don't think he meant to leave that "L" out... --99}

If they ever compile a list of fake organizations with names that sound like they are there to help the citizens of America, it's going to sicken even the most hardened Republican thug.

Polar bears are on the leading edge, but we will be seeing unprecedented massive extinction. Multiple global warming feedback mechanisms have fallen into place. We've raped the planet and will be reaping the consequences, including the loss of the resource base of our civilization. Exxon and the other oil corporations (with the CMSM) are largely responsible with their wars, political bribery, and campaign to keep us in the dark for as long as possible. Seriously, should Exxon have an iota of influence on public policy?
It falls upon people of courage to minimize the damage and face squarely what has to be done.
IMO, oil corporations and the oil-military-industrial-complex should be made public, dismantled and reconstituted into systems conducive to survival and continuance of life on earth. (Incidentally, to disseminate disinformation leading to the environmental condition in which we find ourselves is the highest crime imaginable. Shouldn't they reap the consequences themselves?)
In national emergencies, it is not unprecedented to take public control of vital industries. We are in the midst of the biggest emergency we've ever faced, covered over by nostalgia for a powerful past. But corporate America was never public America and, in fact, it has pushed "public" practically out existence. The medicine for the disease of corporate cancer is a public resurgence.
The Dems are rightfully discussing "slices of the pie" - who gets what - but is vital to discuss the nature of the "pie" itself.
