[QUOTE="rickyb, post: 1970320, member: 56035"] the way the us economy is going, you will be volunteering to work for UPS instead of being paid. corporations push charity as a kind of public relations job because it improves their image. so on 1 hand, most of the charities they push are reformist like feeding a small percentage of the poor. and on the other hand, these same corporations pay their workers a starvation wage. so when i worked at UPS it was 13 or so an hour. thats a starvation wage where im from. if these corporations care so much, why do they treat their own workers like :censored:? why do they rip off their workers on pensions? you are paid very little relative to what you produce every hour for UPS. and i would guess that corporations pay charities relatively little to what they keep for themselves. im not saying corporations do all bad. just like the sith arent completely bad. but they do alot of bad. which news do you listen to primarily btw? theres organizations which cover media bias like how often they put certain kinds of people on, what they most frequently say and what they dont say. cant remember precisely what their names were. noam chomsky is very famous for his critique of the media. chris hedges was told by the new york times to stop speaking out against the war or quit, and on the other hand another journalist was allowed to support the war.| you can also look to chris hedges and chomsky for a critique of corporate power. if you dont want to read, theres a documentary called the corporation. it probably has a different POV than your used to. lets say a slave holder is successful. should the successful slave master be punished for engaging in slavery?
