Thom Hartmann, author of "Unequal Protection," and the recipient of the prestigious 2003 Project Censored Award details the rise of corporate dominance in the beloved documentary THIS LAND IS YOUR LAND

"Top rate! A must-see documentary." -THE ATLANTA JOURNAL CONSTITUTION

THIS LAND IS YOUR LAND is a startling and often hilarious exploration of the overwhelming corporate takeover of American life. From New York to California, both experts and average Americans express their views on the impact of corporate power on individual lives, the social fabric, and the very principles of democracy. THIS LAND IS YOUR LAND celebrates small acts of resistance of the everyday citizen in his/her humorous, unique and inspiring ways.

  • Hadn't realized he'd done a spot like this in video. He's said as much and often durring his radio show but video-graphers as a whole do not typically have the chutzpah to give him a forum, this must have been a outliers of said group. There is no way self same corporate media would let this little tidbit get any credence.

  • There is nothing at all about the work relationship that requires or justifies the treatment of employees as anything less than citizens. Freedom of Speech, Privacy, and freedom from personal searches and unreasonable surveillance are among the citizenship rights employers now frequently deny their employees.

  • For those of you who think Hartmann is kidding, no he is not. I was spied on while I was not on company time or property and got fired. I also have a document from the government backing corporations claim that discrimination against Americans with disablities is legal. If you think there are things that is none of their(Companies) business, you will be wrong. They can and will invade your privacy, invade theirs and you could face jail. The U.S is a facist state, a double standard state. Sucks.

  • Thom's right on some of these issues, but not all. They own the phones and computers you're working on. They're paying you for your time. They have the right to hold you accountable for things done on company time and property. They shouldn't have a right to tell you what to do on your off hours. They also shouldn't have the right to take bodily fluids to monitor what you do in your off time.

  • Through its control of jobs and our livelihood, economic government is responsible for far more coercion in our daily lives than public government. Today, more and more people work under terms of employment they are FORCED to accept rather than under terms they would demand if bargaining as equals. Employers have forced more and more employees to accept less job security, temporary rather than regular employment, lower pay and benefits than the prosperity of the country would seem to justify.

  • How can firing you take away your right of free speech?
