The Real Villians

A follow-up point to ponder from the last post:

Have you ever noticed that in the vast majority of movies, TV shows and cartoons that the villain is a corporation?  Is it any wonder that lots of folks think corporations are the most evil things on the planet?

Now, I’m not going to apologize to Upton Sinclair or anyone else – corporations are as good or as bad as the systems in which they reside.  They are a reflection, not a driver.
The flip side is to look at the systems in which corporations (or their equivalents) reside in.  Truth is socialist governments themselves killed more than 80 million of their own citizens during the 20th Century.  How many did Microsoft kill?  Or General Motors?  Or Conagra?
