I have never had any respect for US Multinational Corporations. I sensed at an early age that most executives had their priorities mixed up when my Uncle said his "money was the most important thing in his life". And that was coming from a guy with a wife and three kids. From that moment on, I was calling my Uncle "businessman". I was one of those long hairs in college during the early 70s who was telling everyone how "evil" US Corporations were and how they only cared about money and had little to no interest in their workers. Of course, I was considered a lunatic by some. But then I was fortunate that the Philosophy and Sociology Department at State University of New York at Albany was completely Marxist. Once I read Marx's Economic and Philosophical Manuscripts, I was hooked. Everything made sense. It confirmed everything I believed in as a young boy: Workers are treated as tools for the sake of profit by capitalist pigs. I took a vow back then never to work for a US Multi-National Corporation. And I have upheld that vow to this day. And I'm glad I did. Sacrifice American lives for the sake of profit! Isn't that what the Vietnam war was all about? It is a crime to have billionaires exist when homelessness exists and many people are going to bed hungry with no medical care. BTW, my Mom went to Donald Trump's wedding to Marla Maples with my Uncle. She came home saying "what a pompous Ass Donald Trump is".
