Put up your dirty hot dog and raise the banner in pride, not fear.
You Meet
You meet the nicest people, was an ad slogan from early years ago. Now with vanity plates you can be led into thinking you know the car. Yet I don’t know if this is the car of this website owner or just some grand fan taking the name for a spin.
Still I have to confess thinking it odd that such a nice new car (note the tire tread) must bode well for the sale of other people’s work. Also, if you are the LW guy, keep your dogs out of my shot, okay?
A shot from my side trip to the beach:
Mr. Mackey’s Cheesy Idea
With a return visit to Whole Foods I had an energized conversation with several of the checkout people. Ever loyal, they defended Mr. Mackey. Of course they did. After all who the hell am I?
Personnel in shorts with a teasing tongue.
But what few know is that A Whole Food was a restaurant and SaferWay was a food buying commune. Do you think Mr. Mackey knew? Yep so do I. But then his company is only a distributor. They select and sell. Although some would say that has only a brand name value. In that case his theft is complete.
but this is the way of capital and ideas. Theft is okay. You can’t steal from someone who wants to change the world. You can’t steal from someone who makes new ideas and introduces them into the world. Or so say the disciples.
It’s easy to steal from those who want to make a better world. Make big changes not just profit.
So that is what Mr. Mackey learned. That is what any good capitalist is supposed to do. Profit from someone else’s ideas. Use their idealism for your better world.
