Perryman, I would caution you against assuming that big business is capitalist. They are corporatist and given half a chance monopolist. This is always at the expense of smaller businesses.

Corporatism is about big business doing deals with government to promote each other?s agenda. That?s a long way from capitalism. It necessitates changing the law to push out growing businesses. It?s not so marked over here, but you only have to look at the US where there is a ton of big business money at Washington trying to engender helpful law?s through lobbyists.

As a side note, Henry Ford was a very unpleasant man. Although I really don?t know anything about the deals GM where doing at the time.


Back on-topic, before I get told off by baboonery again. I like roz?s comments on the BNP members being unable to string a sentence together. Indeed, I would love it if we had the BNP regularly grilled in the media rather than martyred by it. If you put the BNP on a program like question time you could quickly expose their evil and incoherence. Indeed, according to the rules of QT they are obliged to invite them now they have MEP?s. It should be interesting, and I for one look forward to them being thoroughly shown up on it.
