The letter “Occupy San Luis Obispo!” (Oct. 6) suggests, “We can not afford to let corporations run the country any longer.” I agree! The conservatives have been telling us for a long time that it is illegal and unconstitutional for the government to pick winners and losers using bailouts and loan guarantees or let the corporations run the country.
This administration is happy to help set up its own opposition groups to help defuse the blame for its own failure to operate in a legal and constitutional manner. So keep writing those letters to New Times, take your money out of Bank of America, and vote the present administration out of office so they can’t bail out Bank of America ever again.
