Business versus the People

    The Notion of a democracy is not new, in various forms it has been  around at least  for twenty five hundred years. This Idea was reintroduced to the world in 1776 AD in the United States of America and By the turn of the Century to 1800 we were a Federal nation where a majority ruled with courts established to enforce laws protecting the rights of the minority in accordance with the law.
    From the beginning ours was a Government of all the people The purpose of This government was to identify and protect the rights human beings.
    The Civil war was truly a war fought over the right of one group to make a profit at the expense of human beings. Also as the candidate who was elected for office did not agree with the minority ( losing party in the election) the losing group ditched the law of the land. At the end of that conflict a rededication  at Gettysburg Pa. Identified us with Government of the People By the People and for the People.
     Corporations exist only to make a profit. While our government Exist to serve the people of our nation not as a money making proposition, so when I hear a politician talk of our Nation as like a corporation or the need of our nation to make a profit. I will not give him my vote.and beseech that others do like wise
