That is just ridiculus!!!
Mercedes may as well market their cars to tribal members in Peru.
The icon they used stood against everything Mercedes represents!!!
As far a Che goes we could learn a couple of lessons from that chapter in history.
#1 being Cuba was so corrupted by organized crime at that time it was ripe for Castro to gain supporters and succeed. The people of Cuba were willing to accept any change to what they had but were completly blind to what they had created (dictator, loss of most every liberty, stagnent economy and on and on).
So I guess this is why we need to preserve cival rights, free commerce and be vigilant of corruption in our institutions to say the least.

I'm sorry but this reads as what has happened here in the US. People wanted change so much they blindly voted for a community organizer with ties to all kinds of corrupt organizations. I'm just saying.....

Carefull DJD, a comparison to this would imply the prior Administration was the one that was so corrupt the people wanted "any" change.
Anyway, one group should not be so powerful as to have the ability to corrupt the government. This would include the Mafia, Drug Cartels (Mexico), the banking and finance industry, energy industry and coutless others. I'm not saying Banking and Energy are like the Mafia and Drug cartels, But they are in a position to corrupt and we need to be aware of it (balanced government). The mafia and drug cartels need to be eliminated completely.

Labor Unions. There you go, I said it. Unchecked power is corrupt be it unions or government or orginized crime or whatever.
That being said, just want to suggest we lear from history and past mistakes. Saving and Loan Crisis of the 1980s, Bank failures of 2008. Everybody makes mistakes and not all plans go as planned. But be open enough to learn from past mistakes. Already there are those clamoring to ease banking regulations again.

Yes, we live in one big EFFED up mess...........they are ALL to blame.
