Even More Small Business vs. Corp Musings

after this one perhaps, do the [[[defending a corporation rather than small businesses.]]]
one reason I have seen people say that it is okay for banks to go out on a limb is to lend people start-up money so that they may open up their own small business.

umm, forgive me for being presumptuous, but I have to wonder what is so damn great about starting your own business.
okay, look.  if they had simply gotten a professional scientific degree in the first place, then they would not have to worry about their futures teetering on the balance.  They would not have to lose sleep over their career volatility, tottering on the edge of a cliff.  No knowing if they would be able to get their business off the ground and provide a steady, reliable income for themselves and also provide for their families if they decided to get married and settle down.

get a degree in a technical engineering or other scientific field, and work a job that you know for a fact will bring you prosperity and stability.  [[[your future would be far more secure, would be far more well--[[[guaranteed__assured]]] that your wo
some silly little business, so you can what, sell stuff??  I read somewhere where a lady had a business called "Le gift basket" or something like that, I dunno, something really stupid.

I have read people say out of frustration and anger at_[at the frustration of working for some other corporation,]]]__ that they will never work for "someone else" ever again.  they would far rather prefer to work for themselves.  I can't help but wonder

There is a vast canyon of difference betwixt working a crap job and working a professional job. -- I think, I think, that there is a different between working with objects or "things" as opposed to dealing with concepts. [[[ideas, notions, ideas.]]

this is what I mean when I talk about professional jobs as opposed to working simply/merely a business.

More Small Business vs. Corp Musings

From what I have seen, most small businesses are dinky little ragamuffin people tinkering with junk in their backyard.

I would rather work from something great, something powerful, something that actually has the realistic fighting chance of doing something good.  I want to work in and be in charge of something bigger than myself.

A corporation, as long as it is practicing honest, good capitalism, has the power and the means, the resources, to lift the standard of living in a society.  Running water, electrical equipment, generating electricity for a city, purifying recycling and
ensuring that the population receives a constant, reliable, clean water supply.

Working together for a common goal.  A large established company can have vision and the dream to make the world a better place -- and the resources to put this vision into practice.

Not bad corporations like the freakin entertainment industry.  That is a colossal waste of consciousness.  The music industry, the movie industry, the advertising industry with all its greedy and idiotic anti-Napster laws.  That is all pure garbage.  That is a whole sniveling mess that tries to charge the ludicrous claim that making a digital copy of a song is one of the most nefarious dangers to human well-being.

Technological advancements, produce them on a mass scale.  Like Microsoft.  Or even apple as an example back in the day.

Possibly the most important positive social change that large corporation can bestow upon a nation is the offer of jobs.  A livelihood.  I believe in jobs.  I believe in helping people help themselves.  Jobs are a far more _benevolent __ rather than simply donating blind charity, which does nothing but make people weak, dependent, complacent, and unable to support themselves.

This is one of the reasons I am so against welfare.  it is not merely because I am somehow a cruel, heartless, merciless tyrant.  It is because welfare inadvertently does more harm than good to the very people it purports to help.

T hey will become dependent on welfare, ___ They will come to rely on these free handouts rather than learning to work and support themselves.  Apparently the people are too lacking in foresight to see the looming future that welfare has in store for them.  Welfare recipients are unable to see that they are becoming fat and stupid and lazy.

Effecting social change does not seem to work when coming from a single solitary individual's [[garage or kitchen.]]] tinkering around in one's kitchen or puttering around in one's garage.

demand a [[raise the]]] educational standards in public schools.  Demand that discipline, motivation, and general behavioral queries must be made by the child's parents and indeed, must be decided upon by the child herself.

Perhaps back in the 1600s or even 1800s a single person could have created a revolution.  But that is because the whole entire population was simply a loose aggregate of a bunch of ragtag separate individuals who were not really citizens of a sovereign nation.  They were not really working cohesively towards a common goal.

There are a few for which the government seems to have to be at the steering helm.  Education, educational standards.  The US Dept of Education must make sure that in a standard two-semester organic chemistry course series in any college anywhere in the country, they really do teach the full course.

I am okay with scholarships and educational grants, i.e., money heavily invested in the nation's future.  These are people who will one day be tasked with running the country.  We in the current need to prepare them for that responsibility.

I do not see scholarships and other educational monetary support as being mere welfare.  This is not simply giving people handouts and making them dependent, unskilled, or unable to fend for themselves.

Quite the contrary.  Education is possibly one of the best investments a nation can do to ensure that the people prepare themselves for the future.  So they can gain marketable skills and become employable.  So that they can work and support themselves.  So that they don't have to rely on the government's artificial balustrades of food stamps or whatever.
