BUSINESS IS LIFE

[HORUS]

Business only cares about business.

 

They will tell you whatever they can to make their revenue go up.

 

They don't care about the quality of their work or about any specific groups of viewers, they just care about net profit.

 

They are an evil like all corporations, they spend SO much money on advertising just to be able to demand moar payment from the televisions that broadcast them, yet they do nothing good for society, they just hoard the money to make even more money next year, to advertise moar, to make moar revenue.

 

Revenue.

 

This system created the monsters that are displayed in this email, an email that's from someone commanded, and whose best interest is profit, profit profit profit. Free advertising cannot hurt a business, no matter how small the crowd, with a crowd who actually knows enough of the business to email them.

 

But the monster does not care, the monster is just concerned with itself, the CEO's only care about stock holder investments and the value of the Capital stock and the Company president and his council only care about the total revenue generated by the business.

 

They will suppress Wages without stop until it violates the law, the law which gave it the condition to become just a giant, with wealth so seductive yet its cold and corruptive, and they cannot resist the temptation of going from ambitious to greedily hoarding money from the lower class. They will hire people who've snuck past the law, whose wages are not protected and who are willing to work for sometimes less than half what a legal worker is required to work for, because back home the wages are 10-20 times less than the required wages here.

 

The corporation that controls The Third World during the next century, controls the globe. One corporation under god, an indestructible totalitarian Fuhrer of hate and imprisonment, of greed and disconcern, and anti-justic. When they can hold them and make them work at 6-20 cents an hour, and sell the fruits of their labor for hundreds of billions of dollars a year, they will submit, they will do it, they will internally bleed until their entirety is fallen apart, and all they can thrive off of is MORE MORE MOAR.

 

Capitalism

 

This will not be 4kids, but the species is the same, Starbucks, Blizzard, McDonalds, and the Chieftan Walmart are all the same. They will do whatever in their power to reduce their expenses, they will not care about what they do, their goal, and the most efficient way to get it is all they are thinking about, regardless of who they bring down.

 

Some would choose to take a stand against the evils of Free Trade, they will take out the tallest standing symbols of "I for one do not care" economic policy, and would cause the collapse of the World Trade Center. When I was younger, I didn't understand what it stood for, but I know now that though 3,000 people, perhaps not all of whom were corrupted people, died in great justice, in the wreckage of the collapse of a symbol of something that should have never been created. They are heroes, those who died, something hard to become without even knowing. They were the unwilling sacrifice of great justice, and should be remembered for greater justice.

 

A great evil has prospered too long.

 

It hasn't gone unnoticed.

 

A revolution is coming.

I'm a capitalist, even though I like communist ideas.

[Abstract [Atrocity]]

all businesses care about is finding the easiest way to make the most money.

that's what the world revolves around; acquisition and possession of money.

I see sooo many fallacies.

 

Politics and economics are no doubt intertwined, but they can exist independently.

 

Business in its current manifestation, if abolished, would not necessarily end economy; we'd just go back to bartering.

 

In that case, business would become more realistic and tangible, the same dynamics would apply, I imagine.

 

Thus, in this different economy, politics will be conducted as usual and governments will still be stable.

[Zeppeli Gyro Supreme]

I don't put enough stock into economics to care enough to read into it, and therefore I suppose I am ignorant to what we could change. But in one sense, we are better off for our way of doing things. In another, we are not. And sometimes I feel like it just might be a sort of lie. But then again, I think that about a lot of things.

The left-out part of this post quoted above is true, but I will not comment on it.

 

The part of the post that I did quote happens to be the one that caught my attention, seeing how as in America, our greed controles our lives. Jeffrey Choucer, the father of English Literature once quoted in one of his stories "The Love of money is the root of all evil." and in america, that root has spread to their politics and to their economical business franchises such as the ones listed in the above quoted post.

 

Brethren, I am not saying that I agree in communistic views and practices, but I certainly do not agree with capitalism either. Greed for money and power has corrupted our world that it is now nearly impossible for redemption. I understand that there are other views other than capitalism and communism, but no matter how you look at it, no view is fair.

 

"Nor fair or foul in the heart of a warrior, but foul through the greed of a King."

How right you are, Meti.

 

We've all been taught at a young age at how evil communism is, and how good capitialism is. But in reality, good and evil are nothing more than POVs passed on to us.

 

In short, it's like a form of brainwashing. We always saying we're doing the best for the people, yet we understand so little of them, so in reality, how are we supposed to know what is TRULY best for the people?

I know how we will know, when we see results that show us that the people of the earth are getting what they need to survive and given fair value to all individuals, and not gaining an unfair value for our own. We must give and expect nothing back, this, my friend, is generocity, not greed or hunger, but a solute of kindness that holds no limits.

That's unnatural.

 

We humans have been designed to pursue causes that would in the end reward us for staying to such a course. From the cradle to the grave, we do such, expecting a reward, in much the same way the hungry man gives money to the vendor, expecting his slathered bun.

[ragnarok1945]

Exactly my point. The reality is none of us are 0% selfish. You can say all you want about doing it for your heart's kindness, but deep down you want something in return, and if you do not get it, your selfishness increases

 

Oh and tabris: one of the guys at my school had such a vending machine incident, where it got stuck after he put the money in, so he tried to smash the glass open (fortunately some people nearby stopped him from doing so)

[Tabris]

Correct. Even those immensely " selfless" actions, like protection someone, kin or not, from immediate danger, be it real or not, aren't really all that selfless: they could be explained via biological impulses and "misfirings", elucidated most popularly by Dawkins' books.

 

And, yes, ragna, how did things turn out? Did he get his food?

[ragnarok1945]

How right you are. I've been said to be a very selfless person in my school, but I'm almost 100% sure I wouldn't have been that way if I got nothing in return.

 

As per a saying goes "People will do anything to survive." Granted you see us as a very civilized society, but there's always the occasions where you see how primitive and cruel we can become.

 

And for your Q, yes, but only after he paid a second amount (a professor was nearby so he couldn't risk it again), in which the second one got stuck as well

Business in unfair.

 

They dominate the world with their effingh money

[ragnarok1945]

well obviously. Everything is just a form of business. Doesn't matter who they hurt or kill. If it gives them the profit they require, that's all that matters.

You don't have a CLUE

Business kills, it's a bit like being in the wild and hunting a chicken while 10,000 other people hunt the same chicken

Unless you own a company, yes when we go through credit crisis's it gets difficult, but atleast people make money, and earn it, rather then living off benefits when they know they could be working and they could actually do that job, business makes the world go round, if you hadn't noticed theres a large cycle of it, even in the food industry...!!

I think i have a clue, and don't argue with me, because i never give up...

[edit] this ain't spam.

 

Back to what i was saying in my last post, which is two posts ahead of this one, dishonest business and honest business conflict, obviously. take ebay and D.A.D for example.

 

Dishonest sellers want to farm people for money, not sell Dark Armed Dragons. they put fineprint at the bottom of their auctions stating there will be a coinflip or a dice roll to depict whether or not you can get the D.A.D. In all honesty, if the persons wins the auction for 4 dollars, the seller will not even roll the die, say it was the wrong face, and send you a crappy holo.

 

Honest sellers hold auctions for the real D.A.D. These people are the people you SHOULD by from.

I was talking about business OVERALL. Of course there will be honest businessmen and women, but in general that's not how it works in the real world

[Megaworm]

there are things you do IRL that you cannot do in business or a job. Business is about earning money and serving the needs of others that rely on your business, professionally. If you are griping abour your girlfriend, tying up the phonelines jabroniing at her when important calls that need to come in to order your magazines cannot be reached, therefore, it disrupts the flow of money to be made and spent.

 

And then the universe implodes.

[ragnarok1945]

not exactly that case of destroying another. but it is fundamental practice in the business world, you have to crush your competitors almost on a daily basis.
