Corporate Greed
We live in a time in history where it has become popular to vilify corporations. Protest marches are becoming the norm on the nightly news. Protesters, hoping for their 15 minute of fame on the mainstream media outlets, (run by greedy corporations), carrying in their left hand a sign with a slogan condemning capitalism and a $5 cup of coffee in their right, (also run by a greedy corporation).
There are very few things we can do from the time we get up in the morning till we lay our weary bodies down at night, that don’t involve one form of capitalistic enterprise or what is being portrayed as corporate greed.
From the tooth paste and brush, to the coffee, cereal, milk, big slurpee or cola you drink throughout the day, to the vehicle that transported you to your job. Just about every activity you involved yourself in was made possible by some enterprising individual seeking to provide a product or service for a profit.
At what point does that profit become excessive? When, as our dreams become reality and the money from our writing, blogging, or on-line sales starts to pour in, do we write that email blast asking all our customers to stop buying because we are about to go over the “too much” line?
One industry I have found that is not necessarily influenced by greed, is the
These farmers provide food to their local communities that is fresh and wholesome, raised and produced naturally without the use of pesticides, herbicides and chemical fertilizers and stimulants.
These chemical agents are created by huge corporations to sell to conventional farmers who want to produce more and more and more grain, meat, eggs and milk so they can make more and more and more money with less and less and less work.
A Natural Local Farmer lets cows do the seeding and fertilization of the ground. Hogs do the tilling of the soil while aiding in the fertilization. Chickens ducks and other foul take care of the weeds and insects as well as aiding in soil fertilization. All this is done naturally without the need for chemical input. This was the Creators plan.
