The Accountable Capitalism Act

[Batteriesnare]

I didn't see any chatter about this, but good old Poca is back at it. She is introducing a bill that would require US businesses over $1B to get a charter from the .gov, along with employee election of board members (instead of the owners - yikes!) with an effort to make sure these jewels of free markets "create a public benefit" as the Dems see fit.

I'm ashamed that my generation thinks this sort of thing is a good idea. Thoughts?

As much as I hate to link to her site, here's the original bill:

For those bent on socialism they will love this. For those not so inclined, it is just another feather in Fauxcahontas’ high cheekbones, crazy spirit journey.

I predict this legislation has zero possibility of passing either the House or Senate given the current make up. The future may or may not be as kind to the loony Senator from Massachusetts.

Private property is of no import to the left...unless we're talking about their private property.

I can think of a few "public benefits" for the people that favor this kind of legislation but decorum prevents me from listing them here.

Equality is a good thing, right?
