The depth of corruption in this country is mind boggling, isn't it?
There's nothing that isn't corrupted in this country. Is there?
Anyone? Can you think of ONE f*cking thing that is not tainted by criminal or unethical acts?
I just love the new normal of how it's ok to get screwed by the contracts of internet, cable tv, cell phone co's, banks... pretty much all big companies, these days. Their contracts are so one-sided. These are not even contracts, they are terms and conditions given to you. You are not a party to a contract, you are a consumer and they are telling you what their rules are. You can't negotiate with them, it's their way or the highway. This really puts the consumer of any product at a disadvantage.
Does anyone remember way back when, if you had a problem financially, you call up the people you pay money to every month and they'd work out a payment plan with you? Banks would let you pay interest only for a month or 2, until you could catch up. Shit happens and sometimes people get behind. Give them a decent chance, many will try and pay their debts. Who wants to lose their car if they need to go to work in it? I used to do some bill collecting and being kind really helped everyone involved, rather than being an asshole toward them right off the bat. Look at how debt collection is now.
Government... Oh! Government! Rotten to the damned core!
Just a festering mass of corrupted boils running this country. I want to pop them with our Constitution and our Bill of Rights!
Truth is becoming more elusive everywhere at this time.

The US will send you a bill in the mail. Put a lien on your property if you don't pay it. And will evict you the help of gun toting puppets. The US Army is also the biggest drug trafficker in the world. The US Capital is the #1 city in the country concerning the consumption of drugs. Our police force has very close ties with the criminal world... (Mafia, street gangs). Our government bombs whoever and whenever. Our politicians sell out the people to the highest bidder. I could go on and on, but I have to take a leak.

Corruption is exposed daily and the American sheep are too mesmorized by some new electronic trinket (Iphone,smart phone,) and pay no attention to the corruption that surrounds them.
"Obama's bait is cloaked in what mother government can do for you with the biggest carrot being health care using fancy, deceptive double speak. During one of the debates, he and Marxist Hillary Clinton discussed whether or not Americans should be "mandated," (forced), to purchase health insurance. Stalin-esque Clinton actually took this communist concept one giant step further: "Speaking on ABC's "This Week" program, the Democratic senator from New York said she might be willing to have wages garnished if people refuse to buy health insurance." Of course, this is unconstitutional and would be shot down by every court in this country. Obama wants criminals (illegal aliens who smuggle themselves across our borders) to have driver's licenses so they can kill you or your loved ones and skip back across the border. Same old pimping for votes from a particular race of people, promoted by those advancing communism in America:

WHAT DO YOU EXPECT WHEN SOCIALISTS ARE ALLOWED TO SERVE IN CONGRESS?
Just look at eric holder and the fast N furious crap. He should be sitting an a jail cell awaiting trial on charges of smuggling firearm and man slaughter.
There are many in our government that should be sitting rotting in jail except when the corrupt investigate the crimes of another corrupt politicians evidence gets lost or is not permitted in court. the corrupt protecting the corrupt.

RE: The depth of corruption in this country is mind boggling, isn't it?
What are the common denominators behind corruption? If you look to see what promotes it then you can work on changing those things and then people wont be conditioned, forced or even tempted towards corruption. It's not just this country but the different cultures and beliefs can help you see what works or doesn't.
One obvious common denominators is the capitalist mindset which promotes selfishness, greed and opens the door to a cascade of corruptions such as theft, bribery and blackmail. It promotes the most selfish, power hungry and those with the least moral conscience or care for how their decisions negatively impact others both short or long-term. An example is Monsanto and their experiments on all the worlds flora and fauna. Or the oil, gas and power companies that put money over environmental safety/sustainability and human health.
One solution might be that all basic living essentials such as food, housing, healthcare, education and energies be distributed or governed under a different money system and not subject to capitalistic corruption. All non-essentials could still be profit driven.

Corporations have assumed control, and run everything now. They've bought the government and it now enables the policies that benefit only them.
Nothing is as important as profit anymore. People and nature are secondary considerations, if considered at all.
Predatory capitalism Sucks. It is The Beast, and we've been in the Great Tribulation for more than a century now.

Should the people even have to pay for healthcare for having been victimized by greedy reckless corporations, past and present, like Monsanto, big pharma/medical industry or even bad decisions by government FDA/USDA (consumer food and product safety) that have caused so many cumulative/compounded negative effects on peoples health?

That's like people having their mental and physical health stolen from them and then being charged again to be experimented on again to try and get their health back. When you purchase healthcare, medical care or its pharma products- why is there usually no guarantee that it won't immediately or eventually kill you or cause you additional harm that you might not even realize till it's too late or your kids turn out deformed or now carry a genetic predisposition for a disorder?
