THE CORPORATION [22/23] Psycho Therapies

22. The public is starting to fight back and demand accountability from its corporations and an end to abuse. The Kathy Lee Gifford and Walmart scandal brought the issue of sweatshops into the national consciousness, yet they still exist. There is a disconnect between what we do for a living and taking responsibility for the effect it has on our planet. Citizens everywhere are exploring strategies to bridge the gap and regain democratic control. "One should never underestimate the power of the people."

CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE

[praisetothesinners]

Or we could get rid of money as a whole that seems to be the main problem It cause's men to become heartless and greedy and others to slave there whole life's for it Why? Why cant we just work as a whole on some type of bartering system or just for the common wealth of everyone Why is a piece of paper or some stupid piece gold or silver worth anything? That shouldnt be what makes the world go round

[zengzhu]

@zengzhu we use money as a medium BECAUSE barter is too difficult

[zengzhu]

@praisetothesinners money is only a medium of exchange it wouldnt affect this if our currency was rocks or something

The people, united, will never be defeated.

Oh really! US nation demands low prices on goods and merchadise and managing staff demands even higher wages with time. AND THERE IS NO END TO IT. The managment staff salaries have risen like 10 to 20 times over 10 years time. SO the process of managment wages rise if speeding up. You can not take more out of notting,you have to take it from someone. So firms hire kids, who work for a dollar a day and in the future for a dollar a month.COrporate allways cut costs,multiplies profits.

@Zryuken Not really. Of course the actual numbers have gone up, but I was saying percentages have gone up also. So yeah, not a false correlation at all.

I really like this kind of videos, because they make you see reality. However, when i am going to see a VIDEO that talks about solutions or whats being done. We always foucus on the problem, and it does not matter how much we foucus on it, solutions won't come from the same level of thiking that created the problem.

[Zryuken]

@happymand The population of the planet has also increased dramatically since the invention of the firearm, and despite every other weapon conceived. You have made a false correlation.

@happymand : I never said only psychopaths kill people, you eluded that I did. Killing in war is not murder and I never said it was. Your other points I agree with. But if you get any gun you want, load it, put it down and never touch it again. IT WILL NOT KILL ANYONE. Only when a PERSON picks it up and uses it, will it become harmful. That's my point.

[happymand]

@slauertura77 So only pssychopaths and bad people kill others? No, EVERYONE has the capacity to kill. Are our military all just a bunch of psychopathic, sick murdering fucks? No. It is A LOT easier to kill someone with a gun than with a knife. Yes, people have been killing since the beginning of humanity, but I promise you, the numbers have gone WAY up since the invention of the gun. That is a proven fact.
