do you lie?

i think it's funny how we are talking about lying today because just yesterday i was talking to a co-worker about how we have to act in certain areas of our life. for example at school you have to be able to sit in a class and listen to a teacher, at work you can never just be yourself because being who everyone is will never be accepted in society. we all have to act a certain way because if we were just ourselves everywhere conflict would definitely begin. everyone lies in this world and sometimes it's not something that you think about before you do we are just raised in a society where we have to act a certain way and talk and act a certain way in order to be accepted and taken seriously. so whenever you go to a store and the salesperson is extra nice to you just know that that is their job and they are probably a totally different person outside of work. do you agree?

corporation blog

I think that the whole corporation situation has its advantages and disadvantages. I don't agree with it as much I think some people do. One of the reasons I don't agree with it is because it's unfair. I think that not everyone is as wealthy as a corporation is. For example, if someone is starting their own campaign there is no way there are going to be able to overcome the power that a corporation has to be able to advertise themselves. They start from the get go and work their way up to be able to get enough awareness of themselves out to the public. In a way I’m for it because if it’s for a good cause then people will know more about their surroundings. Another reason I’m against it is because so much money gets put into stuff like that when it’s just a repeat on TV or anywhere else. Some of the money they use to just repeats ads or bulletins can be used for something better such as education, public services, bettering the communities. What do you think?
