re: #290 Glenn Beck’s Grand Unifying Theory of Obdicut

That’s not true, though, Gus. It’s not true if there are other healthy corporations around to take advantage of the failure of that company. If company B goes under because their executives spent all the money on coke, and then Company A can hire those workers and gain market share. This happens all the time when a company goes out of business and has a lot of valuable employees— they get scooped up. A company going out of business does not destroy the demand for whatever it was in business for.

Unions can do the same thing and have. Corporate cannibalism is a different argument. If “corporations can do evil” at some points then we can’t see things without a biased view.
