Do you think people realize that the private sector (Mainly corporations) are chalked full of corrupt jerks engaged in cronyism and nepotism while ripping off the "lower levels" to make themselves richer ?? Its amazing to see how many people are willing to be completely taken advantage of and be used and abused while the upper level runs away with all the money on your blood, sweat and tears.

These days it seems alot of the lower level people are just willing to sit there and be completely ABUSED by the system and the upper level cronies..

Its such a shame how some just sit there while the rich keep getting richer (As the FACTS show) and the poor keep getting poorer while they put money in the "well offs" pockets"



Why were there so many revolutions and challenges to the "Establishment" in the past and today people are willing to just bend over? Where is the backbone of people today?

Is someone forcing you to work for a company you don't like?

You can always start your own company and employe people and give all the money to the employees instead of yourself.

This is why unions were formed, but many people oppose them, even when they would be helped by belonging to a union.

All great responses, but to add one more if you think ALL corporations are corrupt, maybe the reason people put up with it is because they like to eat. Just some food for thought <pun intended>

Yes but unions were formed DECADES ago when people had a backbone and stood up to abuse .. Apparently, not now as the FACTS and numbers show people standing by to see Unions completely Disbanded.

Which all results back to my original question in the OP

Most people don't realize this at all. It's not likely for the average person to fall prey to such false ideas. While some businesses suffer form these issues, the vast majority do not and as a result, intelligent people don't paint all businesses with such a broad stroke. Generally speaking, no one is being ripped off.
