How China deals with corporate corruption
Submitted by gjohnsit on Sun, 10/31/2021 - 5:33pmWe all know how white-collar crime is punished in the United States - it isn't.
At best there is a fine of less than the amount that was originally stolen. Sometimes the CEO loses his job, but not without a golden parachute.
Basically, there are no consequences in corporate America for fraud, corruption, or incompetence.
It's the exact opposite of how capitalism is supposed to function.
It wasn't PG&E this time.

So stocks are rising because every Tom, Dick, and Harry has been buying equities, right?

Personal Resilience: Natural Household Products
Submitted by Gerrit on Sat, 04/02/2016 - 6:55amMorning, my dear friends. There is little to no need to give your money to crooked corporations in the household cleaning department. Their products are mostly poisonous and/or ineffective - and always overpriced to the gouging (sp? ah, who cares) max. We use natural cleaning products from recipes we've kifed everywhere over the years. Below are some of ours, and of the afore-mentioned kifees.) I hope you'll add some of your homemade cleaning recipes and products. And if you do the math on these recipes, you'll be a happy camper. Oh, and a more resilient camper too :=) You'll see, it's very progressive to kick the corporations in the teeth AND make yourself more free. It's much more productive than screaming about what's bad.
