All for the sake of the almighty corporate profit. Your job, that is.

Take a moment to thank the CEO, the shareholders, the marketing department and capitalism, itself. Because of all that, you have the opportunity to sell your services, making your time profitable, too.

That's my happy thought of the day for you on this fine, sunny St. Patrick's Day here in the USA. cheers

gardenhackle: You mean the guys that couldn't compete and don't employ you?

No, you don't have to thank them.


Small businesses certainly could compete, they became the corporations through their success.

But since then you have a long history of yes-men, nepotism, corruption and a system that doesn't have to continually compete to prove it is the best - how much closer to the Soviet Union do you wish to be?

Conrad73: They couldn't do it without being married to Politicians!


They use politics/politics uses them - that's true.

However, one man outside of government could become very powerful through his success. That power could then be used to monopolise a market. So politics is not an essential prerequisite of monoplisation, but it can certainly help.

How long does it take an entrepreneur like Bill Gates or Larry Page and Sergey Brin (Google) to go from entrepreneur to evil corporatist fat cat that's part of the closed corporatist elite system?

So is competition good or bad? If very successful in competition, does he become bad? And if so, then is competition really good or bad, since "competition is good" "competition is bad" are contradicting statements and, therefore, can't both be true simultaneously in the same context.

If one is able to stay on top of his Field by sheer Ability,without Help-Rules from Politicians to kill his Competition,he deserves everything he is able to earn!professor
