All farmers need to ban together and never buy anything from
them.
Some one needs to pass a law that if you are falsely accused you
get
1000 times your legal fees. Then tere would be plenty of big
firms
to help.


Someone. Who? Big corps own Congress and the Senate.

And this is why more and more restrictions get placed on tobacco
companies and automobile manufacturers and the like? Because they
_love_ being regulated?

The delegation
system used as part of voting is the thing of the past. A slap in
the face for the typical voter of today. Yet, the lemmings of
today
are typically ignorant of this. And, if they are aware, don't
care.

Well, sorta. Laws get passed, the corps "find" legal loopholes for
the laws they permitted Congress to pass.

Why did they permit the laws to be passed at all if they own the
Congress (by the way, the Senate is part of Congress).

The patenting of life forms started with a bacteria that could
metabolize oil spills, bim, batta, boom, the next thing you know John
Moore had his genetic code patented, wihout his knowledge, by his doctor.

n_Moore.html and then Monsanto et al. ran like a bunch of thieves, which
of course they are.

Too much limelight for
tobacco and automobiles.

So how does being widely publicized change anything?

But, they are still dragging their feet
regarding gas mileage requirements. Early Honda Civics
(underpowered
I admit) were getting real 50 mpg highway.

That was without all the safety crap that according to your hypothesis
the automobile manufacturers decided to enact laws to force themselves
to install. The best any Civic ever did was 52 EPA MPG highway. And
I really don't want to try to get on that highway when there's
significant truck traffic in anything with such poor acceleration.

Poor acceleration would have given us what? Well, it would have reduced
our dependence on petroleum and slowed down global warming. That would
be a good thing, huh?

Don't worry about it. Its another fear tactic, similar to gotta have an SUV
to live with the other traffic to survive an impact. Same people who took
this hook, line, and sinker also ride in family style, bicycles, and run on
roads with motorist fools on them. I ain't figured that out to date.
