GE = Gov't Energy

[gwb72tii]

GE along with other large multi-nationals, stopped being a US company about a decade ago. they are multi-nationals with large revenues that are larger than a lot of countries GDP. They will go where the profits are and have no special ties to any one country. To expect otherwise is foolish.

you missed the OP's point entirely
its not that they derive revenues from outside the USA
its how they're governed as a company and where/how they get their business. its immoral.
what was once arguably the finest company in the world is now a part of the problem
at least many now recognize what the problem is (among others) and that is the start of the end to business as ususal. hopefully.

I swear......politicians should be forced to wear NASCAR style jackets with the names of their "sponsors" boldly emblazoned across them. Maybe then we'd get a little more transparency.

Now that is a great idea.

What does government even mean?

I think Rousseau would say something about a social contract.


...shit, I may have just labled myself as a tin-foil-hat-wearing nut-job.
