THE CORPORATION [8/23] Mindset

8. The profit motive drives the actions of the corporation and creates a mindset of competition and anything goes. Meet corporate spy and self-described predator Marc Barry as he describes his tactics for gathering intelligence from competing corporations.
Juxtapose his attitude with Ray Anderson, President of Interface, who, in an epiphanic
moment, realized he was a plunderer and it was only a matter of time before the law
figures it out.

I think people would like there products more if they knew it was legit. Say for instance if cars are built here and the quality is good then people would be buying them, and for a good cause reliability and Job security! Damn corporation are out of touch with reality.

it sounds as if telemetry is confused this film is not anti capitalisim or against the monetary system it not some utopian propaganda like zeitgeist, whixh does a fantastic job of summing up a big portion of the problems in a short time, but then turns to crazy utopian propaganda as the solution propaganda that resembles huxleys vision in brave new world, the problem is that corporation have all the rights of a person and non of the accountability or responsibility ,and dont pay any taxes and do

[bulletproof2353]

able to fix it, nothing could, but it is a huge lie , look up maurice strong, and who he really is, this whole global warming and green enviornmental is just another fraud to get you to give up your wealth and rights,its totaly crap, the climate is a chaotic system and could never be hoped to be understood ,they even call cap and trade a "scheme" in their own documents cause that is exactly what it is a scheme to steal the little remaining wealth from the middle class &hand it over to the elites

before it is really too late, they are also the same people trying to push his idea of a carbon credit or cap and trade system on us ,it would be the biggest tax on humanity in history ,it is a death sentence for the 3rd world and it means enslavement for the middle class and poor for the rest of the world ,yes the eath is getting warmer but it is not proven to be caused my man, the climate is cyclical and has been for millions of years,and even if it was caused by man cap & trade would not be

[bulletproof2353]

the U.S. has become a corporate fascist dictatorship ,consumption is not the problem, dont buy into this sustainability movement,it just more propaganda from the same people who sold the sheeple on these trade agreements like NAFTA and CAFTA and the idea of a "service based economy" over a resource based economy which is why we are in total economic colapse right now, its why there is over 20% unemployment, that and letting china into the WTO and the removal of glass segal WAKE UP PEOPLE

[bulletproof2353]
