I am watching a documentary “The Corporation” talking about obviously modern day companies. The chief idea being, how corporations are treated legally as a person and how it is a bad idea. First it was interesting to know that the 14th amendment to the US Constitution which made to ensure equal protection to all persons of life regardless of race is used by corporations to protect their rights as legally they are also person. Quoting Chomsky
“These are special kind of persons which are designed by law to be concerned only for their stock holders and not, say what are stake holders like the community or the workforce”
Also of interest was what would be in ideal corporation and one of the definitions given was
The Eagle, soaring clear eyed competitive prepared to strike but not vulture, noble, visionary, majestic that people can believe in and be inspired by that creates a lift that it soars.

1So are you in support for the return of the fuedal system?
A system where we the people the lower, working and middle class will be marched off into the the fields, forced to work sixteen hours a day under threat of execution on the spot? We live in a society that is run by the ruling class.
george bush…john howard…tony blair, these aren;t the people making the descisions that affect you and me, it is the people that influence the lobby groups, the people that run the banks, that run the energy companies, the people that smuggle insane amounts of synthisized drugs of every kind into the supposed first-world countries. The people that support the destruction of our balanced natural world.
For too long these people have been removed from the day to day events that plague us, they have no idea what it means in the spirit to have only enough to buy food and water.
There self imposed ghettos have comprimised their abilitie to understand the world without domination.
The end shall come in 2012, when all the nations are turned against israel which is not far off, despite the hoards of ostriches in the western lands.

2sorry about he ranting. im pretty passionate about fighting the corporations efforts at destroying our ancient cultures, only to replace them with profitably vacuous habits, it is a shame that even in your country (i assume it is india) people are convinced that if they go to the city then the propserity of the peoplea s a whole will be greater.
yes very sad to see a city of peopl living in cardboard boxes only to have gone previously through a highly fertile plains area before the city. Who has tricked these people…. it is the whore of baylon: america that is responsible… the remanints of tamuz and mithra…
