KILL THE CORPORATIONS...NOW!
Well, why not? I mean...they are killing us and future generations in so many ways, including, in many cases, quite literally. Time for some serious retaliation, I think; don't you? We are their life's blood by buying THEIR SHIT, with our endless addiction to commercialism. Why are we helping them do us in?

Here's a an old warrior who sees 'The Beast' for what it is and is taking a noble and powerful stand. I think his action is an example of a good start in making them fade away into financial abyss and ultimately their'death';




An Open Letter To Amazon By Daniel Ellsberg
Monday, December 6, 2010 at 11:49AM


Open Letter to Amazon.com
By Daniel Ellsberg on December 3, 2010



To Customer Service and Jeff Bezos,

I’m disgusted by Amazon’s cowardice and servility in abruptly terminating its hosting of the Wikileaks website, in the face of threats from Senator Joe Lieberman and other Congressional right-wingers. I want no further association with any company that encourages legislative and executive officials to aspire to China’s control of information and deterrence of whistle-blowing.

For the last several years, I’ve been spending over $100 a month on new and used books from Amazon. That’s over. I have contacted Customer Service to ask Amazon to terminate immediately my membership in Amazon Prime and my Amazon credit card and account, to delete my contact and credit information from their files and to send me no more notices.

I understand that many other regular customers feel as I do and are responding the same way. Good: the broader and more immediate the boycott, the better.I hope that these others encourage their contact lists to do likewise and to let Amazon know exactly why they’re shifting their business. I’ve asked friends today to suggest alternatives. I’ve removed all links to Amazon from my site, and I’ll be exploring service from Powell’s Books, IndieBound, Biblio and others.

So far Amazon has spared itself the further embarrassment of trying to explain its action openly. This would be a good time for Amazon insiders who know and perhaps can document the political pressures that were brought to bear—and the details of the hasty kowtowing by their bosses—to leak that information. They can send it to Wikileaks (now on servers outside the US), to mainstream journalists or bloggers, or perhaps to a site like antiwar.com, which has now appropriately ended its book-purchasing association with Amazon and called a boycott.

If you’d like to read further analysis of your cowardice, I suggest you see this excellent article by Glenn Greenwald.

Yours (no longer),

Daniel Ellsberg

Op are you crazy! The corporation I work for has allowed me to own a home, cars, all the luxuries of life. Stop your hate and realize they give us jobs and allow us to live comfortable lives.

Its ungrateful people like you that are being brainwashed into thinking we should all have free stuff! NO NO NO! We work for our stuff.

What's my options? Riot in the strees for free stuff or work and get paid. I help my country by paying taxes, I'm an American and I work for what I get! Try it and stop listening to the progressive left!

Uh yeah, I would have admit to having a more 'Socialist' leaning poltical bent, however, then we would have to talk about what that means since most so-called "Socialist" societies have not been truly Socialist.

However, since I haven't had a date in a while ...I could hardly be considered a "fucking" Socialist.

lol

As for "eating shit and choking" ....gee, that does not sound pleasant ...you must be a Christian, aren't you? This remark sounds a bit fear-based to me.

As for being a "dumb-ass commie" ...well,you just called me a "Socialist" and now you are calling me a "Commie" which I assume you meant Communist ...hmm, perhaps you are confused; Communism and Socialism are entirely different systems.

Maybe you might want to re-evaluate who exactly is the "dumb-ass" here. I am not a Communist.

Anyhow, thanks for sharing your well thought-out and articulate thoughts ...keep coming back!

Stop my hate?? Actually, I feel outrage not hate.

I never said we needed to have "free stuff" ...where did you read that? I question whether or not we really need all that "stuff." It certainly has not done us much good on a societal level, now has it?

And you like being a slave ...okay I get it. You love your "stuff." Swell.

Just remember what Citizen Cane said on his deathbed.

I recommend you try and educate yourself. There are other models out there. You are stuck in this one.

Be carfeul or your 'stuff' will consume YOU in the end.

I hate to break it to you; Corporations have made record profits and the unemployment rates are highest since the Great Depression. And ...famine is a reality for many in this country.

Stop drinking their coolaid.

Why are you all so fear-based?

Study other models like in Germany, where there are laws that mandate a percentage of employed-owned "cooperative" type shares and a collective voice in German corporations.

That is one example. There are many in history.

Workers cooperatives. A corporation can be owned by the workers in part or in whole or in reciprocal collaboration with a privately-owned "corporation" as in Germany.This could be mandated by law as well as by popular action such as boycotting those that do not have partially worked-owned corporations.

It isn't either,or. There are other models.

Some people are amoral and unethical and weak and susceptable to greed. Corporations ARE people. You cannot separate one from the other.

This system of 'free market' Capitalism and de-regulation hasn't worked out for society at large.

Take a look around you!

The rich get richer and poor get poorer and Middle Class is an endangered 'species.'

Don't be ridiculous. A corporation only exists because it gets people to buy its shit.

People give brith to and maintain a corporation's wealth and power over them and then have mass amnesia regarding that fact ...or better yet denial; like abused children who cling to the pant-leg of their abusers as if they have no power or control of their own destiny .... as we are seeing now in that they treat us with open contempt and like slaves.
