[Kate Parker Adams]

It is also sad when people and organizations justify actions in tune with 
the way corporate profiteers behave just because "it's for a good 
cause".  That's kind of like Plato's elusive "benevolent dictator" - the 
fundamental paradigm is wrong, not the values of leadership executing it!

Exactly the sort of thinking that has ruined the Democratic party as a 
moral force in this country.  That and any number of "pressure groups" that 
think it is okay to treat their employees like low-wage slaves and use 
slimy tactics to shut out unions.  Such mindless righteousness lacks 
credibility.
