Yes, I realize that corporations are made up of individuals. Do you? See this is what I don't get when people talk about the "evil" corparations (not that you used that word, but your post gives me the impression you may feel that way). Those same companies employ millions of people. They create millions of products to meet the demand of millions of people. What would happen if they have no protection under law, lose money, and then go under. The economy and job market suffer greatly. And the world may have advanced without them, but the world of technology would not be this far without them. Someone invents something incredible, what does he do with it? He sells it. Now, how does he do so? He creates a shop/small company. Now if demand for his product rises, what does he do? Stay small and do the best he can? Of course not. He expands. Creating new shops in new areas, while hiring new people to run said stores. And while demand is increasing, he keeps expanding. Maybe pouring money into new products or just upgrading the previous one. Then before you know it, he has himself a "mega corporation." Of course, to keep doing well he needs to be protected by law from those who can do him harm, whether intentionally or not. Again this what I don't get when some demonize corporations. They need to realise that all started very small, usually as one store. There was just a great demand for their products/services so they expanded. That doesn't make them anymore evil than the local mom and pop store down the street. Because trust me, if they were booming and there was need for them to expand, they would. |
You really need to look up the difference between a corporation and a private company. Everything you stated can be done by an individual on his own who reinvests in himself to expand.
All of that is way besides the poitn everyone ios talking about. Which is the freedom to use the items you buy in the way you choose
