FOL, your view of things is so pie in the sky I'm not even sure where to begin.
We can quite clearly NOW see the detriment that a pure focus on the bottom line (money) causes in a variety of industries. When money is the only motivator then exploitation, monopolies, etc are bound to follow. As several people have sagely pointed out there needs to be some sort of regulation of key industries. Environmental concerns go out the window with no regulation. Resources would be exploited to their maximum potential. Addiction would be exploited with companies doing whatever they can to get customers hooked on an addictive substance (see Tobacco). And Tobacco isn't the worst of it, you don't think a heroin company would be sticking everybody they can find with needles to get everyone they possibly could be addicted? Of course they would. New, more addictive drugs would probably be developed.
Companies do not have YOUR best interests at heart. They would be motivated by power and money. The rich would get richer and do EVERYTHING they could do to ensure they stay rich and that no competition survives.
Your "theories" don't mean much when real world examples proven them flawed. I can't believe you seriously think the world would be a better place with companies running it. The problems are so obvious I can't believe you openly advocate the idea. The way I figure it you either must irrationally hate gov't for whatever reason or you're a billionaire and you have your own selish interests at heart. I can't see anybody else buying into these quite obviously flawed ideas.
:wacko:
