The "corporate interest" is essentially the human interest. Certain invidious sorts combine as a chorus of concealment on that point.
It doesn't work any too well.
Tell me how Federal ownership of 61% of GM isn't socialism, the ownership (in various guise) of the means of production by the State? How many of the European nations spent time under Socialism? There are damned few that didn't, you know... Liechtenstein. Andorra. Maybe Luxembourg?

SO you cant explain how the essentially private health care system in the US...the payback (at a profit) by nearly every bailed out bank that received TARP funds....a tax system that hasnt change in the last year from what it has been for 90 years, are all examples of socialism?
Ah...so the corporate interest is always in the best interest of the people.
And if they abuse workers, pollute the environment, put questionable products on the market, sell dubious financial instruments.....its all in the best interest of the people.
Who needs govt regulation? How about the people!
BTW, govt regulation was not a creation of the Obama administration.
You essential have one issue of what some of the most narrow minded might consider socialism... the GM bailout.
And you know as well as I, the bail-out was not done in the name of the workers, but to prevent the collapse of the country's largest private employer....on a temporary basis and which is slowly being repaid.
Seriously, dude. Where is all this socialism you, Elder, Beck, Limbaugh and the Tea Baggers are always screaming about?
Damn...you ran away again.
