So get used to it...when they own you they want to slap their brand on your ass.

If you base your buying decisions on name brand recognition or advertising, you are the problem.

If people based their purchases (and more importantly their VOTES) on reality - on need and on consequences - then you would see a much different approach from corporations. I agree that capitalism needs to be regulated to avoid the mess we have now, but at its core, the real problem is people are too stupid for their own good.

Backlash away!!!

Formerly known as the Ford Amphitheater, and most recently as the Mid-Florida Credit Union Amphitheater. I think it's something else now.

It's the place where all the big acts, like Springsteen and Santana perform.

in fact it was pointed out the FAA designation was still the same when it was an army air corp field. In the end it destroys the past all for the sake of corporate advertising.

than the regular rest stops, although the regular ones are by no means shabby. It's a shame that everything is being sold off this way.

Corporations fight paying taxes, but when they see a way to pound their names into our heads, they'll happily fork over large sums of their profits.

"That’s good news for business, which can engage old customers and target new ones. And it’s good for our cash-strapped local and state governments, which can make long-needed improvements to crumbling infrastructures. Everyone walks away happy. Right?

Wrong. Our public spaces communicate important lessons about who we are. By selling these spaces to private interests, we teach our children — and ourselves — that nothing is truly shared; that everything is for sale, typically to the highest bidder; and that the clutter of commercial messages is the price we have to pay to sustain our common lives."

This how Nestles has acted in buying up water sources. Corporations are mining the Commons away from us. Capitalism is not a Democratic process.

we have nothing to fight against it.
