Some fodder for tonight’s presentation on "The Corporation"

It’s news from two Saturdays ago, but still relevant: Kraft Bonuses: $10M Amid Layoffs.


I am mindful of the fact that a lot of things aren’t possible without

corporations. From the development of the railways that opened up the

continent, to the global communications infrastructure and computers

from which I make my livelihood, to life-saving drugs, corporations

make the things and provide the services that we need. It’s just that

like any other powerful entity with influence over our lives —

governments come to mind — we need to watch them like hawks.
