Free-acting corporate value-driven globalization spreads like a virus.
Or like a tumor. Just because the extreme capitalistic society has won
the communist version for example, don't make it right. Like the
christian meme 'preach the gosples', to go forth and show our Book to
others, is very succesful, don't mean Christian religion is right.
Look at the food-industry. Fat and fast food have made people fat and
unhappy about their body and behavior. The same food-industry now offers
us in slick, long commercials all kind of dieet-products.
Happilly (at least here in the netherlands) supermarkets like Albert
Heyn start to offer more 'biological' and more healthy products. Odd to
notice that a small Albert Heyn in the centre of Utrecht offer a
different set of products than a big one in Maarssenbroek, only 7 miles
away from Utrecht. Really, I can't help notice that the people and their
attitudes differ significantly in the two areas, so little apart. Odd.
Greetings, Patrick.
(Ps. I forgot a 'not' in a sentence on pre-Darwinists in my previous
mail: sorry for that).
