- Government show trials occur too often, comparable in many respects to those in the old Soviet Union.
What have happened before our eyes can happen again. They serve the purpose of populist politicians.
Congress had organized a union chase after Toyota, which is non-union, in a huge show trial with the cameras and the finger pointing. No disclosures were made that confused victims sometimes stepped on gas pedals instead of brakes, which jammed sensitive equipment.
Another example: The government and union conflict-of-interest with its ownership of competing General Motors and Chrysler, of course had to do with this extravaganza showcase. Add to this, continued public on-the-carpet questioning of oil, banking and similar top CEOs. (See the Earl J. Weinreb NewsHole® comments and @BusinessNewshole at Twitter.)
