 ==Are we slaves?== 
 Can this be added somewhere?  In Gerry Spence's book 'Give Me Liberty"" he writes: 'Are you free?"" I asked the CEO of a large food-store chain...""Since you mention it, freedom at the top is bullshit,"" he said.  '...I have shareholders to please.  I have Wall Street to please.  I have the fuckin' media to please.  If I fire an incompetent worker, the government is on my ass for discrimination.  If I fire some old bastards who have lost all incentive to do an honest day's work, I'm charged with age discrimination.....'  He laughed.  'Yes, I'm a slavethe biggest fuckin' slave in the company.'  I say we are slaves.  All of us.  And in bewildering ways, our slavery is more pernicious than the slavery of old, for the new American embraces the myth of his freedom as he would a dead puppy, with all affection, speaks to it as if it were alive.....What if we have never known freedom, and have been taught to embrace our bondage, to fight for it, even to worship it?  ...What if a form of subtle slavery has been taught to us, made acceptable to us, made to appear as freedom itself?'""  Can we add it to show that corporations are slave plantations & employees are slaves?   "
