^^ bush isnt the only one making the problem worse. i believe the real problem lies in all that mainstream bull that we force feed ourselves. |
Mainstream as in mainstream american culture (i.e. reality TV, pop music, etc.)? |

Haha, no offence, but if you entitle your poll, "Winner or Wanker," obviously you will get unbalanced voting - people will vote Wanker for fun, or out of spite.
I voted Winner, out of spite and for fun.
:D |

i wasnt talking about myself, but rather mainstream america as a whole. and all that about corporate lobotomy isnt only on tv. i see it everyday. i see it at the bus stop, i see it on some kids t-shirt, i hear it on the radio, its everywhere and it has a name- mass advertising. |

LIke them or not, corporations are what drive economies and technology. Do you really think small businesses have the capital to fund the billions spent on R&D? Or do you think that goods or services could be delivered as cheaply or as profusely to the market place? Without them the computers that we have would probably be 5 times slower and 3 times more expensive. The dawn of mass production has signaled the birth of corporations as the dominant driving force of an advanced economy. Granted there needs to be a lot of corporate reform but we thrive off of corporations as much as they thrive off of us. |

LOL!
i am actually stating what i fear, but i also do fear anarchy and chaos. transnationals suck but what can you do? topple them? i really don't think so, you'd put us back to the dark ages. |

@marcus82
why is anarchy always associated with chaos? i hope you all know that anarchism is the rejection of leaders/authority, and its not as bad as the media portrays it to be. if it werent for anarchists we wouldnt have the standard eight hour work week that we have today (see haymarket incident 1866). and it wouldnt put us back to the dark ages. yes life would be less convenient, but we all wouldnt live under the oppression we all so mindlessly submit ourselves to. |
