    > Why is having sex with other people different from other activies, like for example mount climbing?

    If you're enlightened enough and sufficiently deprogrammed of religious taboo, why do you think those activities are the same? One you'd happily do with your children or your parents or your siblings. The other, not.

    Being such an enlightened person, you wouldn't actually know that they were *your* children.

    The RIAA is not fully to blame here. If I don't like a work contract I get it changed or walk away. If someone is too eager to be famous to take the time and negotiate I can hardly feel sorry for them.

    I totally agree. But then, I never have any problems finding work.

    However, it is something of an elitist attitude don't you think?

    I remember a time when games where made to be fun in single player mode. Some of them had a multiplayer mode that didn't requre internet access. I like that sort of games and that is the kind of games I will buy.

    Me too. I put my PS3 online and yanked the network cable out half way through reading the license agreement.

    I couldn't agree to it.

    "Give us money and we will look after you" Is right wing rhetoric.

    "Give us money, and then fuck off and die" is right wing policy.

    Big corporations, huh? So I guess big corporations are just born that way. They don't start as small companies with slim profits or no profit. Nope. Big companies are just born Big and so competitive that it's hard to compete head-to-head with them. Let's just outlaw all big corporations since they are so evil. I remember entire years of NPR sponsorship for "Sponsored by Amazon Books and Music" that would lead directly into news of Amazon's stock price being questionable given the total lack of profit from quarter to quarter. I remember wondering whether Amazon would ever be profitable. They finally hit critical mass after a decade of running so lean they seemed anemic. Now we're going to tax them back into starvation. Good work. At least we've figured out how to kill off anything we're not smart enough to compete with.

    The problem is that you can't compete with a corporation because the game is fixed. Even up the rules and maybe some of what you say would make sense. As it stands this sounds like the typical right wing rhetoric, "give us money and we will look after you." But a reach around is pretty rare.

    There is little or no symbiosis in the relationship between a community and the corporations that maintain a presence (in whatever form)

    Corporations are parasites that suck communities dry until their economies are devastated.

    I try to boycott them all, it's not possible, but I try.

    This thread was a logical progression.

    Yes, you save money with big corporations at the expense of small business. This is the trend and it takes money out of your pocket and your community. In the long run it costs you more, when the competition is gone, the price will go up.
