Defeat Corporate Communism!

What the hell is Corporate Communism?

(partially excerpted from the new book The Corporate Cult by Rich Zubaty)

Remember every bad thing you ever heard about communism? Well that’s corporate communism.

Remember hearing that people living under communism have no Civil Rights? Ever work for a corporation? When you punch in your time card you punch out your Civil Rights. You have no rights to free speech or free assembly or due process of law on the corporate jobsite. They can fire you if they don’t like what you say or how you look. It’s as if you entered a foreign nation located on U.S. soil. Guess what? You have. The Microsoft nation. The GE kingdom. The Boeing principality. Corporations are foreign economic nations operating on our soil.

Remember hearing that communism is a centrally planned economy? Well that’s corporate communism. Cuba ranks 72nd on a list of centrally managed economies. The first 71 are global corporations. Of the 100 largest economies in the world 51 are now corporations and only 49 are countries. General Motors -- the 22nd largest economy in the world -- is larger than Denmark, Thailand, Hong Kong or Turkey. GM is now the largest private employer in Mexico. Wal-Mart stores is larger than Israel or Greece. The instant we were unburdened of Soviet-style centralized economic planning we were colonized by corporate-style centralized economic planning -- a.k.a. the global economy.

Mom and pop operations are being driven out of business and you get to order burgers with bacon or burgers with cheese or burgers with fries. No homemade stew or fresh-baked cherry pie on the menu. Each day there are hundreds of hours of TV time telling you how to play the “market”, but none -- ever -- telling you how to form a union or make investments in small businesses in your very own community. Corporate communism takes over the marketplace and removes choice -- the opposite of what it claims to do. You only get the books and movies and music they want you to have because they control the distribution of EVERYTHING. Corporate communism has a stranglehold on distribution.

Remember hearing that for all its noble ideas communist society is actually run by a few anonymous drunken thugs? Well that’s corporate communism. Right this minute some men and women are sitting on barstools deciding what clothes you will wear and what cars you will buy and what entertainment you will “choose” and even how you will vote: Republicrat. The “one true” corporate party -- with two happy faces.

Remember the posters of Lenin and Mao and the annual party rallies? Ever go to a stockholders meeting and hear them cheer the fearless leader for firing employees and keeping “profits” up? Millions of people lost jobs in the go-go nineties -- meanwhile we were all being told, every night, how great things were going.

We are awash in “feelings” and dehydrated from lack of ideas. We are suffocating in a Wal-Mart of the Soul. We are spoon-fed rhetoric about “free markets” and “freedom of speech” and the “free press” -- meanwhile everything we do, everything we have, everything we think, everything we are, is dictated by corporations.

the writer ignores the horrors of communism. . . 30 million murdered by the Soviets, 40 million by Mao, billions enslaved. . .

He obviously thinks we are stupid when he writes:

Ever work for a corporation? When you punch in your time card you punch out your Civil Rights.

Its simple. . . don't work for a corporation! In our country, you can do something you couldn't do in a communist nation. . . start your own company, be self employed.

Of course, the Left hasn't shed a single tear for the 100 million who died as a result of the policies they advocate. That is simply because the Left places no value on human life

"As Usual" by T-Mex.....

....that about sums it up!

...coulda stopped rigth there...didn't need to write anything else....we coulda filled in the blanks pretty accurately enough...

since you are obviously unable to respond. Why do you bother responding if you don't have anything to say?

...to remind everyone what a predictably boring dickhead you are...

"At Will" employment...again, BushBlower...you show how monumentally ignorant of reality you are.

Many companies, in Texas and elsewhere, declare themselves "At Will" employers in an effort to remove themselves from the responsibility of providing reasons for termination of an employee. The only problem is that this decaration does not relieve them from adhering to current labor laws, and if the DO elect to terminate an employee "at will" without any documented reason for termination open themselves up to lawsuits for wrongful termination. Doesn't do too well in court to claim to be an "at will" employer who can provide no evidence to counter a claim of wrongful termination. Ask any HR professional about the "at will" claim and I guarantee he or she will laugh. The claim is made to discourage lawsuits and as an attempt to avoid wrongful termination suits, but it really doesn't do much in reality to provide protection against wrongful termination.

But you wouldn't know that...you read it on some consevative blah blah webpage or heard some talking head talking about it and you spit it back like a fuckin parrot...no idea of the real world because you are a little boy living on mommy and daddy's dime and have no friggen' idea about reality.

Now go back to the Cap'n'Crunch n' Cartoons.

You guys have not addressed one single issue I offered. the same things that are wrong with communism are the things that are wrong with corporatism. I do not wish to have my civil rights suspended on the job, and by the way, you certainly must not work for yourself because if you had you would see how corporations overtake any successful entrpreneur.

You say I didn't address one single issue. I addressed your fundamental assumption, to quote:

the same things that are wrong with communism are the things that are wrong with corporatism

This is such a ludicrously false statement, that, having explained how that is a bogus foundation, there is no need to respond to the rest. . .

... of this type ot dialogue. We have dedicated disrupters

who are burning a lot of time distracting and generally creating turbulence in the published information.

The same tactics repeatedly.

Deny, obviscate and lie.

It's like talking to someone who is senile. The beginning of the thread has been forgotten and conversation are begun again disregarding all previous points having been brought up without rational challenge.

Then it's your very standard disinformation tactics of

which I fall for myself, sometimes damnit.

Time for a rating system.

Shit, I know, I'd be first on the list.

HaHa.
