What is the single political/social/economic topic that really lights your fire, that you have strongest opinions on?
For me that would be societal/cultural issues. |

| I just watched the movie "Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room," and it made my blood really boil to how people can actually want a total free market system. It just goes to show that the people in the high places at buisness don't really have ethics when it comes to making them a profit, and it shows with how much freedom they have to have no ethics. |

Not surprising. Culture/religion/society seems to be the biggie.
I just hate organized religion in general. And society as ass-backwards.
But this is nothing new.
:rolleyes: |

Right, just because one company does it, it doesnt mean every company does it. |

| I'm into the economy also, simply because it's going to be 100% swallowed up by China if action isn't taken. |

What, just becuase they havn't been caught, or their actions havn't been made public? There are many companies that do many unethical things that they can do to make a profit because they can slip through a hole in the system. Don't be so blind to the fact that all companies in this free market are ethical. Don't be a capatalist tool that only believes in economic prosperity as the status quo for life.
Why doens't Starbucks raise and lower their prices with the price of coffee. Isn't it a commodity? Shouldn't it go up and down like gasoline prices. No, because Starbucks could give two s about the coffee growers who could benifit from some of the these high priced profits. But instead, Starbucks wants to maximize their profits by keeping the price of a latte the same. Therefore, they make a profit regardless, while their coffee growers suffer with the price of coffee. Little things like that piss me off about a free market system and the freedom it gives to cooperate pigs who only care about profits an not about the people. |

| This is a very strange poll. My pet peeve, for instance, is stupid people doing things that hurt the interests of innocents, and that intersects all of the categories listed as options. Moreover, I'm puzzled as to what makes the riots in France "international"? It seems to me that only one country is involved? |
