Scary Movie...

I just saw a horror film...

Akeelah and the Bee.

I've only watched 2 minutes of the film so far, but I already have been terrified.

Why?

The movie was produced by Starbucks Entertainment.

Let's contemplate that...

A coffee company has just produced a motion picture. And people all over the world say "so what?"

SO WHAT?!

I'll tell you what, when did it become ok for a company to own everything? Isn't competition something that is encouraged in capitalism? Well it is definitely something encouraged in a democracy. No company should be allowed to start buying up half the world market. They can start a new company with a new name and a new CEO if they want to be in a new business.

Next thing you know we'll have Starbucks fast food restaurants, starbucks convenient stores, starbucks clothing line. Or, they will all be sold in the same store. You can go in for a coffee and develop your digital photos while you wait for your breakfast burrito and buy that quart of oil for your car.

F-ing Synergy.

Every day corporate America looks more and more like it did right before the great depression.

You know what the leaders of corporate america did when the depression began? fired everyone and left the country. They made a bad situation the worse thing that could ever happen. They were only concerned for their own corporate interests not for the millions of american workers. Who does that sound like? Starbucks, wal-mart, mcdonalds...

I am going to get back to my horror film now
