I read that article and barely got to the end. All I could think was..."Thank God I never had kids". People have to keep an eye on corporations and the government. They are forever looking to screw us.
"They" are. The problem is most leaders in corporations and government come from a class of privilege. They don't know what it's like to just get by.
