Should it be this way?

Up Hill the only way to go!

The most recent news concerning Osama Bin Ladens crusade against the Americans in Muslim nations has now reached a new plot point. A tape was released which contained a message from a person which is presumed to be Osama Bin Laden, in this tape was a very clear message.
This message in short form would have read like this “Go Home Americans!” (and this after more then two decades of control and pressure by the US started 1979)
Osama Bin Laden stated that if the Americans would not leave all Muslim nations then further attacks would follow onto US soil. He hinted as well that if the Americans would retreat that a truce between his organization and the US would not be out of question. The American response was as follows “We will hunt you guys down” with no intend to negotiate or to accept that other nations do not want to be governed by the US.
This is one of the best examples of a imperial state seeing the sunset and being scared, this sunset would mark the end of the US era. The US era started with the 2^nd world war and seems to be ending now, the end of this era would mark it as one of the shortest reigns of an imperial state. But as well as one of the bloodiest and most destructive in human history, it seems that the US was in the afterburner the entire time of its reign and is now running out of gas. The running out of gas seems to be something that the US can not accept, or they say 'If we go will take the rest of you with us!'.
This behavior can only be damaging in the long run, and ultimately backfire, because once the reign is over and the power something of the past, well other nations will not bow down anymore, and many nations have a bill to correct with the US.
Other nations like France have a very different way dealing with terrorists which is clear and very aggressive, even though it excludes any kind of occupation. The French prime minister stated that France if attacked by a terrorist would retaliate with its nuclear arms against the nation, from which this attack had been started. This threat seems very extreme but probably will send a very clear message.
In other areas is the great company apple which seems to be very interested in their costumers habits, the most recent iTunes update appears to contain very interesting additions. For one the new version has the ability to track costumer interests and thus creating custom stores, these stores are nothing but a new, more profitable way to Spam. Now you think well just tracking sales? That is something even Amazon does, well it is not that simple apple apparently has gained the ability to watch their costumers while they wander through the iTunes Music store, it is not established if this new feature goes beyond iTunes and into the web browser.
Microsoft does not seem to have many issues with breaking privacy rules either nor does Sony, well not until the light was steered towards that issue.

Do we really have power?

The ruling system of today is not unlike the ruling system of the ancient Egypt we do not worship our leaders but we do not have direct power either. There is not one true democracy on this planet, every country independent of geographic position, dominant religion, ethnic group, history or social standing is ruled by an elite. Elite's seem to have only one goal and that is the gaining of more power. These elites appear to assume that they have the right to rule, but they do not. Everyone has the right to have a say in a decision that affects him/her.

Corporate citzens

The corporate citizen

The corporation had no future or power until the late 1800's, it was instituted for a limited time, meaning when the job was done the corporation was as well done. The corporation could be revoked at once if it violated a law. Corporations could only engage activities that were necessary to full fill the chartered purpose (a job for example building a bridge.)
Corporations could not own anything, owners and managers were responsible for any illegal act committed by the corporation. Corporations could not spend their money to influence law-making.
The corporation used the 14^th amendment of the American constitution to gain power which had only 15 black persons while serving 135 corporations, now this amendment serves as nothing but a shield for the corporations.
The 14^th amendment had been created to protect ex-slaves that needed help, it as granted the colored population more rights. Lawyers used this very amendment on corporations and made corporations more then just a group of people working for a temporary goal, but a legal person. This legal person has all the rights a human has in America but not one of the obligations a human has.
One of these obligations would be obedience to the law, something many corporations especially the big ones ignore.
A very good example would be Coca Cola a corporation that has the image of the nice old serving a good, sweet drink. The actual face of Coca Cola is a very different one, Coca Cola has committed the following acts: Between 1989 and 2002 eight union leaders from Coca Cola owned bottling plants in Columbia have been killed after protesting against the conditions in these plants. Coca Cola workers that joined the Columbian union SINALTRAINAL have been kidnapped, tortured, and detained by paramilitaries. In Turkey 14 Truck drivers and their families were beaten severely by the Turkish police hired by Coca Cola. In India were 1.5 million liters of deep well water bottled and then sold under the names Dasani and Bonaqua. The ground water was severely depleted by this and the result were water shortages in thousands of communities as well as destruction of agricultural activities. The rest of the water was contaminated with chloride and bacterias leading to more health problems. The last thing they did in India was the reselling of industrial waste to farmers as fertilizer this waste contained lead and cadmium destroying more water reserves.
Coca Cola and corporations that act similar do not just kill people that are in their way but do anything to gain the extra cent and if it takes murder then so be it.
Another very different criminal would be Chevron a gas supplier, this corporation left 600 hundred unlined oil pits in the pristine northern area of the rain Amazon rainforest and dumped 18 billion gallons of toxic production water into rivers used as bathing water. The toxic crude oil and production water contaminated freshwater and farmland rendering both useless and deadly.
Results were the following health problems the locals would experience: which were cancer, skin lesions, birth defects, and spontaneous abortions.
Now the first thought is 'Yes, well they are doing these things but only in poor countries.'
This not quiet so Chevron, is responsible for widespread health problems in Richmond, California
these are caused by one of Chevrons biggest refineries, the health problems caused are: lupus, skin rashes, rheumatic fever, liver problems, kidney problems, tumors, asthma, and eye problems.
Now these health problems are caused by something called environmental destruction, these will spread and cause more and more damage as well as affect the health of humans as well as animals and plants. On the entire planet.
Coca Cola creates deserts while Chevron does a great job at producing wasteland.
These two corporations are doing good jobs at PR as well and thus are not publicly known as murderers or land destroyers. There are corporations that do some good and try to preserve what little we have left of our environment Three bigger ones would be Hewlett-Packard, Xerox and General Mills their products are good quality that is not produced with exploitations or destruction of habitats.
Corporations are not 'evil' they can do good but they have to be willing to do so. Some Corporations will not change as long as there are people buying from someone raping and killing our planet.
