A PRAYER TO THE CORPORATE GODS
O mighty global corporations, we are helpless without
you. Please bring your menial jobs here to our nation and town. Though
we have little control over these tedious and arbitrary jobs that
create wealth for stockholders rather than us, they are all that we
lowly workers deserve.
Grant us your X dollars per hour so that we might
have hope of purchasing your fine plastic products that bestow
lasting contentment.
Forgive us when we question your authority or do not
work fast enough, for we are but wretched servants.
Thank you for blessing us with the security of
predictable name brand products, and for the intelligent chemicals in our
food that protect us from the sinister micro-organisms and insects.
Prepare our food and serve it to us, that we may have more time to serve
you. We will gladly consume whatever you hand us, for you are all
knowing.
Pacify us with a plethora of prefabricated entertainment, as we have forgotten how to entertain each other. Reveal to us
through your media what we are to believe, for we cannot trust our own feeble judgement.
Guide your politicians as they strive to make this
region of the planet more cost-effective for you by abolishing the evil
workers' rights laws, corporate taxation, and environmental protections
that offend you deeply and drive you away from us. And thank you for
undercutting the pitifully small local businesses that would dare challenge your
divine dominance and threaten the sacred homogenous culture in which
you have safely wrapped us.
Truly all resources belong to you, and we are but humble stewards of them. For thine is the empire, the power, and the
planet, until you destroy it.
Amen.
never did this mind think of this either....
