Does anybody else feel happy that our lives are dependent on
the whims of corporate executives?

2. sarcasm?
No Im not happy. I try to be as self sufficient as I can and hope to not be dependent on them any more than humanly possible.

4. Yes, sarcasm. But,
while corporate execs are utterly inhuman; they're also doing just as much to ensure small businesses go under as they are exploiting the rest of us.

Either way, under their rule, it is impossible to get ahead. The laws and regulations are made for their favor and increasingly so.

I'm sure our founding fathers would not be happy at all.

3. Absolutely,
... as I start my Hummer and drive slapdash through my rich, white enclave. (sarcasm)

5. I spring from my humble pallet ere the dawning of the day,
singing grateful hosannas to life in a proto-fascist corporate theocracy.

</sarcasm & 1/2>
