the corporation
I'm just back from the movie "The Corporation". An interesting documentary about the origins and behaviours of Corporations today. Some pretty shocking stuff. Really shocking how possibly decent people, when they are acting on behalf of an entity which legally has most of the rights of a person, can behave immorally and deceitefully. You should go see it. Everyone should. I might have to force you to. Oh, and don't drink milk that has Bovine Growth Hormone in it.
Here's a link to some reviews.

Sounds like something I'd love. Have a lot of coverage of white collar crime, I take it?
Somewhat white collar crime coverage. It's actually a fair bit deeper running than that though. Corporations don't have much choice in the matter. They are without morality and are LEGALLY obliged to maximise profits. They will do this operating at the edge of the law if neccessary. Sometimes breaking the law and paying the resultant fine is a cost of doing business. It's pretty ugly.
