“Corporations don't create jobs, customers do. So when all the economic gains go to the top, as they're doing now, the vast majority of Americans don't have enough purchasing power to buy the things corporations want to sell - which means businesses stop creating enough jobs.” WantMeanEnoughJobsEconomicCreatingGainsMajoritySellsCustomersCorporationsPurchasingPurchasing Power Author:Robert Reich
“If you ask the CEO of some major corporation what he does, he will say, in all honesty, that he is slaving 20 hours a day to provide his customers with the best goods or services he can and creating the best possible working conditions for his employees.” IfsDoeAsksHoursConditionsHonestyCreatingMajorsCustomersCorporationsEmployeeGoodsCeoWorking Conditions Author:Noam Chomsky

“Now all of the ideas that I'm talking about, they are not radical ideas. Making public colleges and universities tuition free, that exists in countries all over the world, used to exist in the United States. Rebuilding our crumbling infrastructure, and creating 13 million jobs by doing away with tax loopholes that large corporations now enjoy by putting their money into the Cayman Islands and other tax havens.

“I'm against American corporations buying politicians to remove limits to greed, capitalizing on other people's misery, actively creating misery on which to capitalize, "financializing" every moment of our enslaved lives.

“Because today we live in a society in which spurious realities are manufactured by the media, by governments, by big corporations, by religious groups, political groups... So I ask, in my writing, What is real? Because unceasingly we are bombarded with pseudo-realities manufactured by very sophisticated people using very sophisticated electronic mechanisms. I do not distrust their motives; I distrust their power. They have a lot of it. And it is an astonishing power: that of creating whole universes, universes of the mind. I ought to know. I do the same thing.” PeopleKnowsWritingMindRealWholeBigsRealityGovernmentTodayPoliticalUniverseAsksReligiousGroupsMediaOughtCreatingCorporationsMotiveMechanismSophisticatedDistrustAstonishingPseudoBombardedBig CorporationsPolitical Groups Author:Philip K.
