most of which have a political agenda, sadly, which is why its hard to believe alot of shit they spout. its amazing how republicans are the problem, not the consumerism of americans or capitalism in general. no agenda there.

exactly. they are a business, not a scientific organization. they are here to meet the needs and wants of the consumer. if you dont like them, boycott their products, unless your feet dont work for some reason.

a city of 8 million people, with the air not blowing in from the ocean, but out to it, its what you would expect. you should visit mexico city. strangely, republicans are somehow responsible there too. and india, holy crap, what a republican stronghold that must be, you should see the shipyards where they tear down old ships for scrap, toxic fumes, 1 in 3 workers gets cancer. those silly republicans, working on global domination.

nope. i believe people should have a right to govern themselves as their community or culture sees fit, not what some urban majority a thousand miles away believes. i dont think anyone has the right to say whats right for some one else. so im republican.
