The Corporation

I just watched an interesting DVD about corporations in the US.

If you've never thought about capitalism, the dollar, power, the economy or the environment, this is a good movie to watch.

I recommend this as a renter.

    It should be required viewing for all adults over 16 on this planet. It's critical information.

    Have you seen it, Xray? Because it's certainly not what I think you think it is. It's the most searing indictment of the modern global economy that I've ever seen and I've seen a lot of them. It's also mesmerizing and hopeful. You can't take your eyes off the screen when you watch it. I don't know who the people were who made it but my hat's off to them.

    *tongue in cheek* humble apologies-No I haven't seen it. But I think Groundhog Day should be made essential viewing for those that think Samsara is non-existant.

    cheers,
    love you all,
    Xray

    I'll check this one out, thanks for the recommendation :)

    It's probably going to be right up my alley because I already have issues with materialism, capitalism, consumerism and corporations, but those are all completely different stories and I've got many more to add to the list.
