Richard (RJ) Eskow: MadisonWorld: A Future Where Corporations Have Human Rights... and Humans Don't
Who makes the corporations rich, those who run it or the people who actually do the work?
Today we saw state troopers in Madison tearing peaceful protestors out of their own capitol after the state's Senate voted to deprive them of their rights. Video footage of that event should come with a label: Brought to you by the State of Wisconsin, a wholly owned subsidiary of Koch Industries.
Right now Wisconsin is serving as the prototype for United States 2.0, a newly reconstituted nation where corporations have all the rights of personhood without any of the responsibilities -- and people have all the duties of personhood without any of the rights.
Welcome to your future. They're preparing it for you right now in America's heartland.
