Subject: [corp-focus] Taming the Giant Corporation; conference in
DC, 6/8-10/2007
TAMING THE GIANT CORPORATION:
A National Conference on Corporate Accountability
<www.tamethecorporation.org>
Presented by Ralph Nader and
The Center for Study of Responsive Law
June 8, 9 and 10, 2007
1530 P Street, NW
Washington, DC 20005
The central, pioneering task of "Taming the Giant Corporation" is
to facilitate discussion, debate and strategic thinking about how
to subordinate corporate power to the will and interests of the
people. How do we replace the excessive corporate privileges and
immunities entrenched in law and the economy?
Details on the conference (and on-line registration) are at:
<www.tamethecorporation.org>
The conference features an extraordinary line-up of people to drive
the conversation. Speakers include Senator Bernie Sanders,
Representative Dennis Kucinich, Ralph Nader, Dr. Steffi Woolhandler
(Co-Founder of Physicians for a National Health Program), Mark
Green (the new President of Air America)), Thea Lee (Policy
Director, AFL-CIO), Amy Goodman (Host of Democracy Now), Katherine
Redford (Co-Founder of EarthRights International), Ilyse Hogue
(Campaign Director, MoveOn.org Political Action) and Robert
Greenstein (Executive Director, Center on Budget and Policy
Priorities). There are lots of other great speakers and participants.
There is a $50 fee for attendance, but conference organizers aim to
accommodate anyone for whom the fee is a barrier to attendance. To
register and request a scholarship, contact Drew Bush
([EMAIL PROTECTED] or tel: 202-387-8030).

==========
CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list. Proselytizing propagandic
screeds are unwelcomed. Substanceânot soap-boxingâplease! These are
sordid matters and 'conspiracy theory'âwith its many half-truths, mis-
directions and outright fraudsâis used politically by different groups with
major and minor effects spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought.
That being said, CTRLgives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and
always suggests to readers; be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no
credence to Holocaust denial and nazi's need not apply.
Let us please be civil and as always, Caveat Lector.
