I just saw yet another documentary in the same vein as "Fareinheit 9/11". It even had cameos by Michael Moore. This one was a documentary on Corporations called "The Corporation". It didn't have too much I wasn't generally familiar with, and it wasn't as radical as I expected it to be. It actually presented a relatively balanced case considering the subject. The thesis of the film is the notion that the modern day corporation is a kind of "frankenstein's monster." Which seems like a nonsensical notion until you start listing the companies that have broken the law, hurt the environment, or otherwise taken people to the cleaners in the name of the God "Profit." Worshipping at the shrine of Mammon, corporations may be driven by decent people, but often behave like sociopaths.
