A friend of mine recommended me a site - storyofstuff org that points out how the current social and economical situation is a direct result of corporations having the same rights as a person, but without the same responsibilities, and their employees are recruited usually before they graduate from college. A couple of years ago before I submitted a job application to multi-national corporation, I checked out several hr consulting firms forums for tips on how to make a good impression at an interview. In theory all was great, show leadership, hard work and a positive attitude, in practice, only those candidates whose family members were already working for the corporation passed.
