The Corporation

I was perusing the blog... I looked at the Milton video. It was very interesting. I then noticed another video on the same You Tube page having to do with The Corporation. I watched it and found it as equally interesting except in a bad way...

The Corporation is a popular documentary explains that a corporation is premised on the idea of people conducting themselves in the market place with no need of regard other than the bottom line at the expense of its workers, its social environment, and its ecological environment. The profit motivation is the only concern. Aside from knowing that M. Moore and Chomsky are only true to there beliefs that their endeavors are not about the bottom line is that they believe in the 'common good' syndrome first (that even embryonic stem cell research supposedly wouldn't even have the potential cure for) and then they want to make as much profit, or have as much accolades respectively so off of that idea, if you are for free trade, or for investing a risk, this is the anti-capitalistic charge of the economic fear mongers... *** one extra charge for Michael, you have at least one corporation, you invest in many corporations you call evil and I do not believe you are not doing your social or ecological environment any bit of positive constructivism...

Corporations are set up for big ideas and big operations... You simply cannot start big ideas or business operations without Corporations or being a corporation financially. Corporations and the idea of limited liability is setup up for people who don't have money to invest in the idea. They could loan and ultimately destroy themselves or the company's ability to do anything if things didn't go well or if they even if they did badly. At least with a corporation with private investors, the investors are the ones at risk. Now from that you could conclude that the corporation isn't for the bottom dollar as much as the investor is... who is the investor? That's right, the American public...

Profits are evil? Only to those who suffer from envy. I could elaborate further, but I like the statement as it is so I won't add anymore to it...Now as far as some classes being able to better take advantage of investing or be at less risk due to their net worth... that's just class war mongering... Don't hate the player or the game... learn to play the game better...Socially speaking of Corporations, in-house or outhouse, it really is not the job of companies to put people before the business, or it will fail.The person is given the ability to fend for himself either by representation, or take his capabilities else where. Don't like a corporate feel or worried that you will be run over by the bad side of the corporate stampede? Try something else and have the faith that you can accomplish anything you want to. Ecologically speaking of Corporations is too difficult to put down generally... I will say that any form of PROVEN unhealthiness to the environment is already been made illegal and is largely regulated already, in fact the current over regulation has prohibited us from being more of an industrial nation rather than a services nation. As far as the political interference of Corporations, that is for someone much more aware of the number of ways business, political action groups, and external forces that all own Washington to answer. This influence is both good and bad. Think about it, everybody wants less pimping of our governing body. Everyone will agree the money and power is out of control. As far as the legislative body though, a Corporation should fight to protect itself. Everyone in this country has that ability; they just choose to not do so.
