I was gonna go that anyway avenger, i don't need your approval because i already have her consent. 8)

I already watched the corporation a long time ago(do you ever read any books) and i do agree that modern marketing techniques are counter productive to the health and direction of the market

[KMA]Avenger wrote:whats to talk about?

marketing is about selling you things you have absolutely no need for, and media is about telling porky's (porky's=lies and falsehoods).


try watching the film i posted (The Corporation) i think...no...i know you would like it :-)


P.S.
don't look to much at me mate, my mrs will get jealous :shock:

Don't you think life would be boring with those things we "absolutely don't need of"?
People who don't have them usually work heavily, or have problems to survive, and if they aren't poor, they are bored lol.
Not everyone lives around a lake or mountains to distract themselves whenever they need it...

As for evilness of capitalism...well, we know those "evil" people usually aren't even following laws, and will hopefully go to jail someday, or will have to pay huge amounts.
I'm talking about corruption and illegal tradings.

It was wasn't really a documentary, more like propaganda, but it did mostly make good arguments to support it's conclusions. If i remember correctly.

Hmmm...no, I didn't mean instaur monopoles, plannification (?) and stuff like that.
Just meant minimum wage, health system, and controlling that oligopoles don't come around and destroy competition in the economy.

No...control on oligopoles is made by European Union lol.
There's nothing socialist in it, as oligopoles are a break for competition, one of nerves of capitalism.
As for other two...well..indeed. Modern socialism (social democrats) yes, not the failful old one, linked with communism.
