I am very irritated. This internet is acting up again and I don't understand considering that it is a DSL modem that's supposed to be fast and effective. Corporations are complete bullshit. They monopolize every little aspect of the market they're competing for, only to reduce the quality of the product and increase the price they sell it for. How does that relate to my internet connection you say? Well let me explain... I have a Verizon connection. Now their commercials are all about "having the highest speed with the most reliable connection." But here I am restarting my modem almost everyday just so I can have a connection, if any. But if I change to another internet service provider, like At&t or cable,I will still get the same quality, and probably pay the same, if not more. Now my complaint about corporations is very simple. If they want to monopolize a business, ensure that the quality of the product is worth removing all competition because at the end of the day if you take away our options and give us shit, what's the fucking point anyways?
And it's not just the internet industry; the clothing, food, banking industry are all run by a small percentage of people that really control the bulk of the wealth, and give us shitty products. As an independent thinker and closeted libertarian, I don't really mind a company monopolizing an industry (if they are that good, then they should reap the benefits), but to completely eliminate a product's unique and excellent quality just leaves a bunch of customers angry and helpless.
If it was up to me, I would eliminate the use of corporations in my everyday life. But I live in the US and that is damn near impossible. What I do is mostly shop in small businesses, avoid fast food chains, or any chain stores for that matter, and whenever necessary, report the ridiculousness to all the review websites in order to get the word out. I ask that you do the same.
Now I know I'm complaining, but I have a headache and this is pissing me off. For the few that are reading this, I hope you're not too annoyed at my obnoxious nonsense. It's just one of those days.
In the meantime, enjoy some Fiona Apple.
