You are under the mistaken assumption that only really big businesses

are
corporations. This just proves your ignorance on the topic of the

economy.

"Corporations" and "corporate interests" are code words for "rich guys"

and
"Republicans".

It has nothing to do with reality.


Quite. Take a good look at the Fortune 500 and see how many are "run" by
Republicans.

You have no idea what you are talking about. The Corporation I work for
serves about 100 clients. In many different industries. Number of

employees
at each range from 3 to around 100.

Of our 100 clients only 4 are Sole Props, 10 are LLC (what we here in
Arkansas call partnerships and also a type of corporations) and the rest

are
Corporations.

You are under the mistaken assumption that only really big businesses are
corporations. This just proves your ignorance on the topic of the economy.


In this situation you may be right. But, I am trying to illustrate that
"combined number of proprietorships and partnerships in the United States is
more than five times the number of corporations." Because of this statement,
I only assume that my previous comment might be more accurute. Since you
explain that only four of them belong to partnerships, then I am mistaken.
However, the question is still left unanswered:

Everything you see, touch, use, eat, wear or live in was probably produced
by a corporation and could be produced in no other way.


How can we prove that corportations produce more products than the combined
sole proprietorship and partnership?

And "rich" is defined as anyone who makes twice what I do.

Why not


Altimeters simply can't be set that high. The adjustment mechanism doesn't
have the range.

the adjustment range to set the altimeter to the proper pressure will not
move to adjust 2800ft of altitude.

try it some time, to adjust from a "standard 29.92" at sea level. Move that
altimeter to my airport at 2833MSL and it still says 29.92, now try to move
it to read 0, this would require you to move the setting more than 2800 feet
which exceeds the capability of a standard aviation altimeter.

you can't set QFE when the field elevation is that high above sea level

The pilot survived, right?

His health is fine.

His career, I sadly suspect, is not.

A comment from one of the ASF people at a CFIRC I was at over the
past weekend was that he is now flying a desk at the Pentagon.

The same man stated that the problem was that the pilot had become
too comfortable with practicing the maneuver at his home base, which
was about 800 (+/-; I don't recall the exact number) feet lower
than the airfield at which the accident occurred. At the accident
location he set up the split-S so that the top was at the proper
altitude MSL -- at his home base, meaning that the entire maneuver
was executed 800 feet lower than it should have been.

I have *no* military jet experience, but especially for airshows I'm
somewhat surprised that there isn't an altimeter set to QFE to serve
as a sanity check against exactly this sort of problem.

And you think it follows from that that all the stuff corporations sell are made
by those small businesses? No way.

One medium size corporation is the productive equivalent of about 8,000 sole
proprietorships, and even the parts for most items we buy could not be made by
one or two people.

Ahhhh...the traditional definition of _rich_ is someone who merely has a
dollar more than you.

Quite. Take a good look at the Fortune 500 and see how many are "run" by
Republicans.


That's because they are "productive" -- a concept that the Democratic Party
should be embracing, rather than disdaining.

Take this to the bank: If the Democratic Party would lose their
"I'm-a-victim-and-you-owe-me" wing of their party, they would easily be able
to attract a majority of Fortune 500 CEOs, if only as a reaction to the
Republican Party's swing toward the Religious Right. In my opinion, the
vast majority of Republicans are quite uneasy with the direction their party
is going, and are ripe for the picking.

As the Democrats stand today, however, few productive members of society can
support them.
