25. People want solutions
People have been bitching about the power of corporations since I was just a child and the only telephone company was Bell. I still don't know that breaking up Bell really helped the consumer. I do know that it hurt the worker because they're the only ones who seem to be competing, for crumbs instead of good union contracts. You don't need to point out the problems of corporations to any American. The ones who believe in them are the ones who have always believed in them and always will. The only way the worker has ever gotten a fair shake is to organize and demand it. That's the only way the worker is going to get a fair shake now, global labor rights. You start making the soccer/security mom feel responsible for that chinese woman who has to wear a diaper in order to make their kid's tickle-me elmo, you'll get change.
