"The Corporation"

First off, a corporation is one form of business ownership. Basically to the employees of corporations, they see a corporation as a person. Therefore, the corporation is treated like a person. To me that seem to be the excuse or the reason why they are so selfish, is because they see it as a person and treat it like one. Another thing is the corporation is harm to workers, because of layoff. The corporations are known as the externalization team. What was discussed in the video also was how the big corporations such as Nike, Liz Claiborne, and Kathie Lee all have expensive clothes and shoes. Yet, they only pay the workers who make and do all the work about 10 cents an hour or similar to that. If that is what they pay the workers, than they shouldn't sell their clothing or shoes for so much. The workers that are hired to work are the ones who are desperate and will do anything to make money. Such as people in other countries who are barely getting by. Once they have paid enough money, they then move to a different place and pay them the same. The cycle keeps going and they move around to different places because they know that people will work for them.
I wasn’t so shocked at what “The Corporation” was. I had seen a movie similar to that and at that I was very surprised and shocked at what corporations do just to have money in their hands. They don’t think about the world or how negatively it will be affected. Yet, we as the customers still go out and spend our money on them, just so they can have more money to come up with something else to make our world worse than it already is. It’s interesting how people worked for them and after they do find out what the corporations are all about they quit. There are also many constraints on corporate form, yet people still work for them because they are just there for the money even if they already know that it is wrong. The corporations are looked at as a metaphor, maybe like an eagle or Frankenstein in the movie.
Locally owned stores are not being supported because of the bigger stores that the corporations put up. One of the biggest stores that is all over or everywhere you go is wal-mart. Wal-mart is one of the most popular stores that we always go to whenever we are in need of anything. We never go to the locally owned stores to but whatever we need. Maybe one of the reasons is because most of the time the locally owned stores don’t have the stuff we need. In conclusion, many corporations or all corporations do anything and harm people or animals in other places so they can get money. But some corporations had environmental violations, and paid so much money for the violations. Corporations should at least have some sympathy and not be so selfish to get what they want.
