Corporations

What comes to your mind when you hear the word "Corporation"?
Recently I watched this interesting documentary on corporations. It really opened my eyes to this world and how things work. Even though this documentary was made in 2003, I feel the topic they talk about is still relevant and there are still people who are ignorant to what is happening.
So if you have time, give it a watch. You can easily find it online by searching up The Corporation.
For those lazy people who need links

i canr't see what opened your eyes tbqh most of the video is half true descriptions and the other is ideological drivel

The reason this was eye - opening was that there were things that were mentioned I never knew before and it expanded my view on this world.
for ex one of the half truth was that coropration schemed the way in to reciving the same rights as a real person witch is not exactly true , they needed the right to ownd and buy/sell property and financial assets because at that time the law clearly stated that only humans could do it and the asociations were treated as non-humans. they only needed some economical rights humans had but the left at that time refused to give it to them so they had to retort to becoming a person in law
i said ideological drivel as in facts distorted to fit an ideological narative and an ideal and an ideology are 2 different things
national socialism aka natzi was an ideology while MLK quote to have his children and grandchildren be judge by the content of their character in ideal
also and ideal cannot be attained in 100% because there are no perfect solutions only trade off's if you know it it's the principle of equivalent exchance
ugh replying is harder then i thought.
I agree with you, nothing can be perfect and yes this is just a point of view.
By seeing different points of view we can build our own point of view. I am not anti corporate. I believe that businesses help our economy grow but can't we make the economy better and make a sustainable economy
till present day the best system we found is the free market and individualism to create and spread prosperity and all that was achieved trough trial and error
like socialism&comunism in ee made everyone equaly poor
monarchy in the west put the power in the hand of the elites
feudalism was prone to corruption
theocracy still lasted trough this day and we see the results in the middle east
capitalism democracy for now proven to be the most succesfull despite some slips
humans will keep progresing but they need to take in to account the history
vot
only a fool would allow themselves to be ordered about by a "mindless, soulless entity, aka a corporation"
its a battle of blood and bone vs corporate entities.
