Corporations social responsibility facade, not only questioned but what it stands for utterly rejected as a complete sham.

Social responsibility of businesses questioned:

"The negative ones amount to refraining from harmful behaviour, for example production that destroys the environment, and violations of human rights."

what is addressed as ..negative .. the refraining from harmful behaviour .. avoid keep away .. from what is regarded as harmful .. as

and all that ..being ..negative .. negative for business and profits .. the hell and heavens ..breaking loose ..

corporations .. march .. leave nothing stand on your way .. while ..trashing the environment

attack human rights .. a free-for all ..punching bag .. scatter them ..to smithereens

because it ..is good for business and profits .. 

and ..your rights for profits ..are above all else ..

what is negative for business ..for business to thrive entails harm to what .. humanity and world .. regard as unthinkable to perpetrate upon ..

what is positive for business ..it is negative for people and environment ..

counteracting..positives and negatives .. what is regarded as ..progress and growth ..

is lost into an abyss .. their meanings become ..utterly distorted ..

ought to strike a balance .. a balance which can only be achieved ..by ..

taking ..business ..out of the hands of ..business-people .. their criteria .. namely the profits ..

certainly ..are not ..a good reason ..at all ..

subtle .. negative .. the interplay .. between ..positive and negative ..

banks, corporations ..two-faced .. the real rugged-crooked face .. and the normal face (a mask really) they put out .. for people to see .. PR .. public relations .. huh ..

for ..the real rugged-crooked face .. what is accepted as negative .. is positive ..

what is regarded as positive for business .. a money-making machine ..

and money-making machines are based upon .. harmful behaviour .. destruction of the environment .. violation of human rights .. all these bring .. sweet profits ..

systemically .. any money-making machine .. opts for the negative .. they are negative ..

the negative .. seen from the perspective ..of the whole .. society .. state .. humanity ..

clearly any money-making machine .. named either bank, corporation or any other name they can come up with .. will all steer right into .. making profit .. they are 'genetically' ..predisposed .. to do so ..

positive .. only as an attempt to wiggle around .. to cover the real rugged-crooked face .. from being seen ..

smoke in the eyes of people .. philanthropy .. that puts it into perspective .. a hideous perspective that
 humanity ..rejects ..

something that society and state .. ought to do as well .. what it needs to be written in their .. DNA .. in the code to be executed .. at all times ..

the pure essence of the law ..

no pussyfooting .. the negative and positive aspects ..as they stand for humanity .. should be adhered by all .. business ..or any other kind of activity, as such ..  in principle and never in name ..

Crime, a concept so distorted that lost its meaning. Perpetrates illusions. Spreads confusion.

Drug gangs report blasting UK cities as dangerous is too confusing - Professor Alan Stevens - Mirror Online

sheer propaganda .. for the system .. to justify its existence .. the need for overbearing police procedures ..

while in reality ..police forces act as .. occupation armies .. their goal to defeat ..people ..

armed with an arsenal of rotten concepts .. concepts daily proven inadequate .. to fulfil the requirements people set ..

instincts .. words shrouded with mystery .. concepts that perpetrate illusions .. tools in the hands of the oppressors ..

one would say .. people .. suffer collateral damage .. in the police pursuits .. but it is the other way around .. people are the main target ..

and whatever .. blows are suffered to drug-peddling money-making machines .. can only be accounted as .. the collateral damage ..

money-making machines .. their motives not at all different .. from any money-making machines .. so heavily promoted by the very system ..

money-making machines .. their boundaries blending .. any money-making machines .. so heavily promoted by the very system ..

the system ..at pains .. to make the distinction ..

one feels .. a conscious ..unease .. using the word ..crime .. a concept ..so distorted .. that lost its meaning ..

Humanity's unreachable targets.

wave after wave .. earth in itself .. bear the hallmarks of an organism .. a superorganism .. a system above all systems .. or better a system out of all systems existing .. a supersystem ..that adjusts its parameters .. parameters within which all its entities can fit .. entities that be the component systems and their component systems .. down to the human individuals proper ..

creation .. innovation ..thrive .. despite the crisis writhing currently .. crisis that never ceased to be .. since the dawn of humanity .. since the time humanity as a giant baby trodden on its four paws .. trying to get its bearings .. learn how to walk and run .. and it did learn and keep learning .. managed each epoch in its long history .. to cover each inch upon this earth .. to reach each .. unreachable target .. only to find out .. more and more targets to be reached .. still targets keep cropping up .. the stakes are getting high .. demand more out of humanity .. more concerted efforts .. efforts that the current framework humanity relies upon ..can not afford ..

current framework .. highly divided ..disparate .. weak for the tasks ahead .. demands a thorough breakup of the structures prevailing .. the disorganised implementation of the tasks at hand .. the false adherence to the vehicle of money .. the utter dependence for growth .. to an insignificant factor .. the artificial divisions that pushes humanity towards .. weakening its efforts .. straying off the targets set .. unable to live up to expectations ..

progress growth .. its total reliance upon money .. the false indicators adhered to .. the overwhelming preponderance that banks have achieved .. banks housing the elites .. the stranglehold of further progress of humanity .. the limited horizons at bay under their narrow and selfish perspective .. do not suffice ..

the exponential curve .. humanity's growth .. being set upon since a mere century ago .. is still in its infancy .. it hasn't reach its upper limits .. not even near its middle .. the push the momentum would not decrease .. it carries forward humanity .. it would rid of the obstacle that money presents ..is .. and with it the banks that represent it .. humanity would glean as the whole that is .. and not the whole out of the elites alone with their banks .. as it is amply revealed ..in this instant of the humanity's growth curve .. the world deep into an economic crisis .. while at the same time ..creativity and innovation continues unabated .. that the economic crisis is artificial .. man-made .. and that what matters .. are the resources .. human mainly and the material resources available .. and as for the material resources .. for providing the energy required .. technology constantly replenishes the energy arsenal .. new sources are uncovered .. and their lack of use .. the reason being left unused .. it clashes with the vested interests of the economic elite .... as it will entail its collapse .. the global economic economic structure .. utterly inflexible .. non-conducive to progress ..

No More Angling for the Best Seat; More Meetings Are Stand-Up Jobs - WSJ.com

Ask Slashdot: Are Daily Stand-Up Meetings More Productive? - Slashdot

stand-up jobs .. what is tried on .. straight out .. fits to what was brought out .. by the studies on .. emergence ..

what's my mood .. this late morning .. let's call it mood .. for the sake of .. no better word .. coming to mind .. though that might change .. as the thought .. progress .. shape up .. fleshed up .. meat among the bones .. to fully fledged ..propositions

it all started .. as I read page 86 of .. Steven Johnson .. book of ..'emergence'

"Indeed, the code is utterly worthless without the cell's ability to determine its place in the overall organism, a feat that is accomplished by the elegant strategy of paying attention to one's neighbours."

the code .. the written program .. the DNA for a cell .. the norms, habits, laws for the individual .. the corpus of what and what-not to do .. that individuals adhere to .. for almost everything .. in their daily lives ..

the code is utterly worthless .. without the cell's ability to determine its place in the overall organism .. the corpus of norms, laws .. utterly worthless .. without the individual's ability to determine its place in the overall .. society, community, state ..


and how does it determines its place .. by paying attention to one's neighbours .. referred to as an elegant strategy .. elevated to an ability .. and what best way to pay attention to one's neighbour(s) .. but to place one's self onto the neighbour's shoes .. empathy .. the ability of empathy .. that individuals are endowed with ..

empathy .. a crucial component .. of the individual .. in building societies, communities, states .. a necessary .. and if not .. sufficient condition ..if any from of organised setting .. is there to be ..

knowing one's place .. as a condition .. to make good .. the corpus of what and what-not to do .. according to which .. societies, communities, states are built upon..

"As Ridley writes, "The great beauty of embryo development, the bit that human beings find so hard to grasp, is that it is a totally decentralised process.
Since every cell in the body carries a complete copy of the genome, no cell need wait for instructions from authority; every cell can act on its own information and the signals it receives from its neighbours."
And so we have come full circle back to Gordon's ants, and their uncanny ability to generate coordinated global behaviour out of local interactions."
