People are really suffering these days. There's a lot of corporate triumph and a lot of personal despair as they wonder what are they working for.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
It's the great tragedy - people employed in ways that don't fully tap everything they do best in life.
Misery no longer loves company. Nowadays it insists on it.
Corporate America cannot afford to remain silent or passive about the downward spiral we are undergoing. It cannot turn a blind eye to how difficult the experience of life is for so many of their customers.
I think dysfunctional people are being funneled into very corporate behaviour. Look at the Brits... no one's fighting, and it's boring.
People who have nothing to do are quickly tired of their own company.
The corporate world has the resources to improve the world. It's where people live and work.
