What's the Difference Between a 4.0 and a 4.6?
Yo, them shits even got leathers?
I need to address a travesty that is occuring again and again in our community. Think of this as a public service announcement of sorts. See, I live in the south, and living in the south--for a confirmed northerner like myself--offers its fair share of culture shock. But, under no circumstances, should it be appropriate to wear a bowler in a club. Unless you are a pimp. (Standard issue I hear.) So to all those dudes in the club, wearing off-the-rack 16 button suits and bowlers, who are not involved in providing crack idled women and broken down strippers to frustrated steelworks on payday; please for the love of God, stop NOW.
Now, on to the question of the day; Corporations--good or bad? This question came to mind after watching 'McLibel' a documentry about some hippies in London who are trying to shut down McDonalds because; (1) the amount of paper covering a hamburger adds to the general litter worldwide; (2) Mcnugget chickens are killed; (3) McDonald's only pays minimum wage; and (4) McDonald's rules stifles workers' creativity. I won't waste time arguing that capitalisim is good and communisim/socialisim is bad, but let's look at number 4, shall we?
McDonald's requires all hamburgers to be made in the exact smae manner. The Hippies argue that this suppression of the individual worker's ideas is inhumane. One question--do I really want a 'create-a-burger' based upon Zeke's idea? Seriously, have you seen McDonald's workforce lately? Out west with all the chicanos, I'm liable to get a Big Pedro, instead of a Big Mac. Down south, deep fried quarter pounder, with extra collard greens. And in London, warm diet coke, unsalted potatoes, and McBlood Pudding. No Thanks.
So, like in the Mclaughlin (probably mispelled-so what?) group; to the question of whether corporations are good or bad--Wrong!--they're good.
By the way, I don't eat fast food, messes with the svelte figure, but dammit, if you want fat on a bun, I'll back you up.
