Most incompetent? Any American power company. That one on the east coast especially.

Amen, yo.

FPL is a very well-run company. <_<

Patenting a gene is enough.

Monsanto's opponents are not opposed to gene patenting. They just think that the people who did all the work should not get any of the benefit of the work.
First Maxim - "There are only two amounts, too few and enough."
First Corollary - "You cannot have too many soldiers, only too few supplies."
Second Maxim - "Be willing to exchange a bad idea for a good one."
Second Corollary - "You can only be wrong or agree with me."

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

I'm their opponent, and I am opposed to gene patenting.
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

Indeed, the only problem I have with them is gene patenting.

Yeah, that's much worse then killing thousands of people in India.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

The Pinkertons is also a good one, but I don't know if they are still even in business.

You related to McClellan, and still upset about those inflated Confederate troop estimates?



Actually, I assume that you're referring to the use of Pinkerton agents in putting down labor unrest in the late 19th-early 20th century. 

And yeah, I believe that the Pinkerton agency is still in business, though I don't care enough to actually check.

If by "Putting down", you mean murdering people then yes.
