A spin off of the healthcare reform passing post
I think I have had an epiphany lol.
The other day I made a post about the film food inc. Which talks about the atrocities that go on in big corporations and how they are knee deep in government operations among other things. But no one seemed to care. We are being directly controlled by large corporations than we are by the government. Be it Food, Insurance, or the Banks
People need to know whats going on and realize that they are being controlled by these corporations and from what I can tell from the last election, that is something that people don't like. People are willing to protest the health bill and claim they want to protect joe the plumber but what about Joe the farmer? These corporations actively seek illegals to hire in mexico. If people are soooooo worried about illegals taking jobs and healthcare, They need to know that those are the people that is handling their food. The way i am starting to see things is maybe it's not government we should be protesting but maybe it's the large corporations since they seem to be the ones manipulating and controlling our government.
roughly 5 companies have managed to control over 80% of what we eat. Which is a scarey thought to me.
Did you know that there are actually laws called veggie laws that can prohibit people from badmouthing the food corporations. The laws are effective in 13 states.
Food libel laws, also known as "food disparagement laws" are laws passed in 13 U.S. states that make it easier for food producers to sue their critics for libel. These 13 states are: Alabama, Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Texas. [1] Many of the food-disparagement laws establish a lower standard for civil liability and allow for punitive damages and attorneys fees for plaintiffs alone[2], regardless of the case's outcome.
But no one is going after the companies that hire the illegals that will actually go into mexico to recruit their citizens to work here. It was made mention that one place in particular actually has an agreement with the people who deport illegals. They agreed to give up 15 illegals a day so that their production isn't interrupted. WHY ON EARTH AREN"T THESE PLACES BEING FINED?
