I'll pass on the video, but the concept is clear. Too big to exist. Yes that has been defined by statute by the Sherman Antitrust Act. It seems railroads were in a supposed competition and were purposely operating at a loss, because they could. They had the resources to do so. The government said that they were in collusion to keep new railroads from starting up. Whether or not that is true has about as much chance as anything else they say, but history was made nonetheless. Later, ATT was too big. They used the same law to force the breakup, and it was really all part of the plan. Make it look like this happened, make it look like that happened and the people will rejoice in their newfound poverty. It has been this way for millenia. Sanders is pretty cool, less of a nut than most and everything, but the fact is I simply don't need his words, I have my own. What's more they knew the net result of all this shit would be zero, just like the German government knew when they ordered the sale of Krupp. Nobody had the money. Krupp came in real handy during the war, but of course afterwards they had to go, but they didn't. Neither did that family in Texas that told congress to go fuck itself. No it wasn't the Bush family. Those people could never make that much money, they just ain't smart enough. I forgot their name. It's all a game and we would be lucky to achieve the status of pawns. Sanders does not impress me. Nobody does. If someone does I will let you know. T
