Someone pointed out to me that Hollywood

has never made a movie where a large corperation is the good guy.

There is always some kind of deal where the corporate bosses are chasing some whistle-blower or another. Either that or they are cooking paperwork to stiff some poor bastard that is suing them for poisoning him.

I'm certainly not saying these things do not happen, they do. There are a number of ruthless corporate types that simply ought to be forced to live under a bridge for a while to atone for their sins.

Still, there is another side to American corporations that ought to be mentioned here to keep things fair.

For one thing, they provide quite a bit of employment and put a lot of meat and potatoes on a lot of tables.

For another thing, many of them donate huge amounts to various charities, hence putting back into the community. I would not even try guess how much money they put back into the country, but I'd bet it is in the billions.

While I am not saying in any way that corporations are saints, it bears mentioning that the system reallly isn't all that bad, either.
