City may give corporations the "right" to vote

Well, folks, the unthinkable is finally about to happen.

The city of Aurora, Colorado, is courting a new hotel complex to be built by Gaylord Entertainment. And - in addition to giving Gaylord a $300,000,000 taxpayer-funded bailout - the city also plans to give the company the "right" to vote.

No, I'm not making this up. A city plans to allow a corporation to vote.

Wow. Just wow.

At least the Libertarian Party of Colorado criticized this proposal as "fascism." The Libertarians haven't sunk to the Republicans' depths quite yet.

Voting "rights" for corporations. That's where we're at now. In fact, corporations are being given more rights than people to vote. For instance, the Republican candidate for Kentucky Secretary of State is busy filing complaints against officials who allow the homeless to vote. And look at all these new voter ID laws. Obviously, those aren't being applied to corporations, because what corporation carries an ID?

Do people realize yet what a bunch of fucking nutcases are behind this? What? They do?
