Libertarians, Tea Baggers, Conservatives take note:

Corporate greed does not police itself for the common good. Arrogant corporate leaders think nothing of taking risks with the lives of the people who work for them to squeeze an extra dime of profit from a coal mine or an oil rig. They think nothing of risking the extermination of marine life in the Gulf of Mexico and the livelihoods of the millions of families who live and work there. There is no "invisible hand" leading these companies to work for the common good. Greed is not good. And the only way these greedy corporations and executives can be prevented from destroying everyone and everything in their path to profit is regulation by the government of the people, by the people and for the people of the United States.
