		<description><![CDATA[Today, Abraham Lincoln would have to say America’s got a government of the people by the corporations, for the corporations. That’s because American corporations are in control, exercising all the Supreme Court-granted rights and privileges of personhood while shirking all of the responsibilities of citizenship. The proposed trade agreement with South Korea illustrates corporate control of government for profit. Americans hate the FTA that will cost jobs and increase the trade deficit.
