      The corporation gets the vote of a human but is insulated from the laws that are made for the human. Like Steiner and George said. As long as the ruling class create laws against humans using their judicial branch then it doesn’t matter what form of government you use. Man willl never truly be free in this type of distopia.
      So a corporation is made of hundreds of individuals yet it gets its own vote? That’s a whole lot of double voting snd cheating. Corporations travel about like a human without a soul nor conscience. It pollutes at will, it kills the environment and inhabitants for profit. It’s only concern is to the shareholder……. Not people, planet or animal. Huh? Look at the last 9 presidents.cabinets…….all corporations. Could this be the problem? Where are the historians, sociologists, quantum physicists, spiritualists? Yeah…….this isn’t about us

    The other problem with repopulating Paradise is local politicians are using new tax structures to keep out "The undesirables" meaning those who aren't from the Bay Area. What made Paradise what it was is the people who lived there. It was an affordable place to own a home and retire in. Most lived there for generations, and we're paying much less in property taxes than new people coming in are. They are squeezing middle-income people out.

    A judge should reverse the shares buyout for victims and instead, pay those shares at the highest historical rates. I’d be curious to know if the judge got a pay out with all the executives and politicians! We need audits and to re-open this case to look for further corruption! It should be illegal for any company to make political donations during a bankruptcy, especially when victims didn’t get paid first! They had legal obligations to meet before buying favor from the government!
