In the view of corporate greed, the idea is to buy WTOP, get contracts to put up electronic signs, and do everything to convince the masses that 495 is bumper to bumper - with every expectation of getting those people to steer clear and then use 495 for their own corporate executive driveway.davidnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5450121982799231004.post-15334574688878560292005-06-17T09:30:02.000-07:002005-06-17T09:30:02.000-07:00Why focus on this mysterious identity "corpor...Why focus on this mysterious identity "corporations". I am certainly the last person that would promote the the limitation of individual liberty to promote a special-interest like a corporation. I am talking about the invisible hand - through rationally self-interested behavior we help others, even though that is not our intention.

You care about your own well-being, and by helping yourself you help your company, its customers, and its customers' customers.Ryannoreply@blogger.com
