Big corporations are getting money from you whether you like it or not

Ever wonder what happens when a company starts offering different services/products. A calamity of unknown proportion starts to take effect. Here are just few examples of what can go wrong this mixture.


1. Why is the government able to give us a gas tax and be allowed to put up street signs? The government can then decide to put up street signs on every block to force us to burn more gas. It explains why less than 3% of the lights in a city don’t become blinking lights between the hours of 11:00pm – 5:30am. To be fair we also have to be alive to pay taxes so, they also have a vested interest in us living.


2. Why are phone companies allowed to sell cellphone’s and also offer a recycling program for them. Last time I checked I didn’t have the option of buying a used cell phone directly from the phone company. I wouldn’t be surprised if they just repackage them and resold them to us at full price. At least they aren’t going into some kind of landfill though. Right.


Maybe you can post about some companies that are guilty of this crime.
