Corporate Sponsored America

It's no secret that the United States of America is a country driven by greed and ambition. Personally, I don't think that ambition in itself is evil, but I do believe that ambition at the cost of others well-being is dangerous and frightening.
Specically, I'm talking about corporate and capitalist America. Our businesses have alienated the working class, stripped us of our abilities to raise our familes and grow old gracefully and lowered the standard of living nationwide. All in the name of the bottom dollar.
Corporate America is slowly buying everything that we love. Go to the movies? Now you get to watch commercials and previews, not to mention the thousands of carefully planned product placements throughout the film. Like sports? So does corporate America! You know, that big RadioShack logo you see behind home plate of every baseball game. Interested in politics? These companies will stop at nothing to make sure there candidate gets elected. Broadcasting moguls are putting their weight into the political process along with every rich money maker in the nation. We are in need of serious reform when national policy can be bought by the highest bidder.
Our president has welcomed these monies with fervor. And if you want to start to make a change in our nation, now is the time. Check out http://www.boycottbush.com for a list of his corporate sponsors. Right letters and stop giving them your money until they stop giving him theirs. Change begins with us! Every small effort counts (didn't you watch LOTR?)

Good Post Alli, but I have to wonder how many of those same corporate sponsors for Bush have also sponsored your candidate Kerry? Just a question that further shows how deep corporate greed really is in our political system.
