  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

You can't have both. The way to curb corporate power is through regulation. Less regulation means less corporate power and the other way around.
Your right. When I posted that I had our manufacturing and mining in mind and we need to loosen regulations to allow startups to succeed especially in areas of critical resource needs even though we have Australia but there's always supply chain disruption.

I think Democrats and Republicans should start a movement and shame some larger companies to profit share with their employees, take money from shareholders, and give it back to workers.

The Trump administration on Tuesday said it will keep using strict guidelines adopted by the administration of former President Joe Biden to review proposed corporate mergers.


......

The decision is a victory for the populist, anticorporate wing of the Trump administration, embodied by Vice President JD Vance.

Vance frequently found common ground with Biden’s FTC chair Lina Khan, who made antitrust enforcement a centerpiece of the agency’s mission.

Sorry to see that young lady go. I hate when politicians clean houses, especially when good people are at some agencies. Thank you for this, I guess Trump isn't a total nut. If we let the Fab 7 companies buy out everyone else that's when slavery begins. I personally feel wages are suppressed because there is not enough job competition.

Let's see what the Trump administration does in practice.
