But what Nader is talking about in how these students are being taught law is quite frighting. It will eventually give us a law field of totally compliant lawyers for the corporations. The law he is talking about from 1886, where corporations were able to claim to be a person was due to a clerical mistype on a court case. I've heard Thom Hartmann talk about it many times. I highly doubt it was a honest error either. It has never been challenged in all this time!?! DO you need a moment? So even in 1886 when the parties were basically in switch mode they were already working together against us for corporations? That's one hell of a moment for politicians to decide to right a wrong within democracy!
