Corporate America Can't See the Forest...

First verse:
The combination of compassion and cruelty in humans is uncanny. Corporations are able to eliminate the first nasty trait. The problem in this country is that we have bestowed many "human rights" on corporations. Another term is "constitutional rights". This is very dangerous, as without compassion corporations can only (logically) act ruthlessly. Nothing else could be expected of them. If you have had money invested in the stock market you may be familiar with the corporate "rights" concept. Your money has disappeared because of the right of corporations to protect (means lie) themselves. What would the outcome be if every entity lacked compassion? An extinct species (us) would result. A corporatocracy is therefor a much worse system than even the most feared of systems; anarchy. A singular human being lacking compassion would perhaps turn out to be a serial killer. A corporatocracy has that lack of remorse mentality.
Second verse (same as the first):
I work for Corporate America. My company was one of the last to go under in the recession and one of the first to bounce back. That is fortunate for them. But I see the disturbing signs even there. Some people who I work with are afraid for their jobs and it shows in their demeanor.
Increased productivity!
We workers will give the corporatocracy more productivity.
In exchange we will accept less life and wage.
This is not how we build a middle class. This is how we build a serfdom. Do you prefer proletariat?
Now what Corporate America? You have cut costs by eliminating labor. But now (false) profits are flattening, as the consumer has no monies. The end of the beginning? Can the moneyed elite begin their poker game with all of the Monopoly money now? The last laugh will always come to the most numerous: to the proletariat, too late.
The Rant's Over:
In the final analysis, the planet will likely be too compromised to support a decent species. It should have been better. It should have been better to lack the cruelty.
