Rich people are prisoners of the system just like poor people are. There are good and bad people with money but civilization demands the same awful behavior from all of them.

Also, here are things that the Olympics does for the world:

• promotes the use of performance-enhancing drugs
• fosters pride in things you had nothing to do with
• furthers the us-versus-them feeling among nations
• repeatedly shows that the biggest winners are the countries with the biggest sports programs

wished it wasn't true =/ but nobody got to the top or bottom without being a liar or backstabber

promotes the use of performance-enhancing drugs

why don't they just make it legal? break the limit of the human body and show us what our bodies really are made of when you push it to the limits with chemicals

It's like, we all promise we'll turn out to be better bosses than our predecessors were, and sure, maybe you can pay your people a little better and accept a smaller profit margin than your peers do -- but you can only take that so far. Unless you have the funds to keep up with what your peers are doing (be that legitimate business expenses or under-the-table deals) you'll be outcompeted and forced into bankruptcy.

And the Olympics have totally gone back on the spirit of the original games, which was about well-rounded people being awesome in a well-rounded way. But it didn't take long for professional athletes to take over and these days they're so specialized they might as well be trained monkeys.

I'm not so sure. I read that late Nintendo CEO Satoru Iwata once cut his own executive-level pay by half rather than cut the salaries of his employees or lay them off. I daresay Nintendo is thriving in the present day. Would executives stand to lose much more than status or superfluous possessions if they followed his example? Would it not better serve their companies?

[joe_galindez]

Not every CEO is a rockstar in their industry. You'll find that any highy-competitive field tends to force people into a standard mold.

I mean, you're probably right. That's why I'm presently making plans to move somewhere where Capitalism isn't a religion .
