Thread Name: BS: Romney to Privatize Gravity...
Subject: RE: BS: Romney to Privatize Gravity...
What I fear is the day when corporations succeed in privatizing sunshine and air! It could happen anytime. Hell, they've already bamboozled millions of people into buying expensive bottled water (which is quite often just ordinary municipal tap water, sold at as much as 2,000 times what the corporation paid for it!) So why not privatize sunlight and air? Because they can't bottle them yet and scare people off what nature freely provides, that's why! ;-D Just wait.....the bubble domes over your towns and cities are coming!

But privatizing gravity...that's brilliant! They only way you could fight that would be by staying immersed in a swimming pool or going up in a hot air balloon...and you'd have to come down (or out) SOMETIME, right? Then they'd charge you by the pound. Overweight people would pay a huge fee. The corporates would claim that this was a public service, because it was helping persuade people to slim down and be healthier.

My guess is that the privatization of gravity will go ahead SOON. ;-) If Romney doesn't do it, Obama will. Slim down NOW!!! Or get that hot air balloon.
