Or the top 100 corporate criminals of the 1990s? Corporate Crime Reporter told us that in 1994, burglaries and robberies cost Americans over $4 billion in losses. Corporate fraud cost nearly $200 billion. Handguns killed 15,000. Occupational diseases killed more than 56,000. Corporate Crime Reporter's Mokhiber shows that that's the rule, not the exception.

If you work for a living and support the administrations tax cut agenda, the only word for you is 'sucker!' I wish I remember who coined the term 'Toys for Trillionaires'. It seems to say it all.

The health care crisis Anthropologists use care for the sick and injured as one criterion for judging the humanity of our remote ancestors. Given our wealth and record in health care, would an anthropologist 100,000 years from now judge us as even human, let alone morally decent?

Major General Smedley Butler said,...I spent thirty- three years and four months in active military service as a member of this country's most agile military force, the Marine Corps. I served in all commissioned ranks from Second Lieutenant to Major-General. And during that period, I spent most of my time being a high class muscle- man for Big Business, for Wall Street and for the Bankers. In short, I was a racketeer, a gangster for capitalism.... I helped make Mexico, especially Tampico, safe for American oil interests in 1914. I helped make Haiti and Cuba a decent place for the National City Bank boys to collect revenues in. I helped in the raping of half a dozen Central American republics for the benefits of Wall Street. The record of racketeering is long. I helped purify Nicaragua for the international banking house of Brown Brothers in 1909-1912. I brought light to the Dominican Republic for American sugar interests in 1916. In China I helped to see to it that Standard Oil went its way unmolested.
