I would suggest you wash her right out of your hair.

It got so popular that no one ever goes there anymore.

And there's dear ole Spexx's answer --the statist answer -- to all ills: more, and more, and yet more officialdom. Unproductive of wealth, eating-up of society's substance -- gee, what a racket it is.

Are there other people here who agree with such a stupidity? Shame on them too. Like 14 trillion shames and counting.

Oh, UG, get over it! If you think big agra or any other multi-billion industry cares about the best interest of the consumer, you've been smoking too much crack (again). Corporations care about the bottom line. Period. If it weren't for government watch dogs, the wolves would be picking off the sheep to an even greater extent than they do now.

(Crawls under desk and covers eyes to avoid reading UG's virulent reply)

Sam, you're being lame. I, on the other hand, am a nonsmoker of any substance.

Get over it? Not on your life, Sam. I have values and get grief from people who don't.

Don't trust statism. It'll fuck ya. And no kisses.

Surely all wisdom will die with you.

No, Pete. A bit will, though.

Unless of course mine spreads to you.



That's what's known as oral transmission.

Here's another transmission: Sam thinks corporations have to be evil and unethical to survive well enough to profit. I know better than that. Sam is old enough to -- and I am not so frightfully much older than SamIam.

Geez, UG, you're older than dirt!

And stop twisting my words. I wrote "Corporations care about the bottom line. Period." I feel that corporations could probably make profits just fine even if they were run with some integrity. Unfortunately, integrity is a quality that all too often seems to be shed at the boardroom door. If you don't think most CEO's worship profits to the exclusion of anything else, you must be entering your second childhood, in addition to being slightly older than me.

Subtle strawman.

It isn't about "making profit". It is about maximising profit. And very often - but not always - the most effective way to do that involves screwing the workers, the competition, the customers, the general public, the IRS, etc, it ways that are indeed unethical.

Keep your hands to yourself. I don't swing that way.

We must have different ideas about what wisdom means.
