Absurdity; a sure sign of the last desperate refuge for liars, fools and ignorance; and those who have lost their arguments. Yay you! :clap:

Facts don't care about your feelings TD. The United States is a corporation. So is the state that you live in and the state that I live in. Each federal department of the United states is a corporation.

You're too quick on the trigger.
 
Well, then. The Question would arise; Is the United States, in fact, the East India Company. A Global Trading Entity?

Perhaps in some ways, but then we seemed to have taken over the far flung realm it's self, the British Empire & it's role of dividing, conquering etc.. One of the first acts was overthrowing the democratically elected leader in Iran.........

I recall thinking Reagan would revive mercantilism, as many American corps dwarf the economies of much of the fourth world countries as well as many 3rd world countries..
 
Should I assume that most of you are familiar with Dunn & Bradstreet? The DUNS number for the UNITED STATES government is:

052714196

Each major department of the federal government is also a corporation. Some examples:

US Department of Defense (DOD) 030421397

US Department of the Treasury 026661067

National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) 003259074

Each State is also a corporation, even though some of them are incorporated in other states. A few random selections with their major cities:

Alabama 0040227553 City of Birmingham 074239450

Arizona 068300170 City of Phoenix 030002236

But you can check out the DUNS number of any of the federal, state and local governments @: mycredit.dnb.search-for-duns-numbers/

Bill; "Perhaps in some ways, but then we seemed to have taken over the far flung realm it's self"
Jack: So, basically the EIC, but under a different name?

Old Europe was governed by Kings. The EIC was governed by a 'Director' and a 'Board'.
The US never had a 'King', It's always had a Director (President) and a Board (Congress) elected by the Shareholders (Property Owners).
 
"On January 1, 1776, the Continental Army was reorganized in accordance with a Congressional resolution, which placed American forces under George Washington's control. On that New Year's Day the Continental Army was laying siege to Boston, which had been taken over by the British Army. Washington ordered the Grand Union flag hoisted above his base at Prospect Hill. It had 13 alternate red and white stripes and the British Union Jack in the upper left corner (the canton)."

That's the Flag of the East India Company.

"The flag of the East India Company represented the British East India Company between 1600 and 1874. The flag was altered as the nation changed from England to Great Britain to the United Kingdom. It was initially a red and white striped ensign with the flag of England in canton. Wikipedia"
