Why do cons hate nearly every government power but have no problem with giving every power imaginable to corporations?

    Why do you lie? A negligent or corrupt or unethical or wasteful corporation can be sued and boycotted and lose business.

    Why should not the government have some kind of control or restriction put on it when it is equally in the wrong?

    Why do Democrats support such unlawful, dishonest corruption in government?

    Corporations are not engaged in coercion.

    Even the poorer cons think that corporations are going to save the country and suddenly come to the aid of the people by; hiring all of the unemployed, insuring them with good benefits, stop manufacturing from overseas and bring new revenue to the states. They could do that now if they had a heart...why don't the poorer cons give up this admiration to corp society? they just hate anything that they didn't vote for! I have a 4 yr old that is like that, she can't work with disappointment either.

    Simple answer is corps must work efficiently to survive. Govt. never worry about anything more than keeping the tax money rolling in and their personal salaries and pensions fully funded.

    Conservatives believe in the government not becoming involved in the economy. A normal conservative (no the hard right republicans are not normal) would want all corporations to be treated equal in the legal system and would not want to give them human rights(because uh they're not human) so this hobby lobby religious crap is complete bullshit in most normal peoples eyes.
