The smartest thing that United Way ever did was partner up with corporations. Their corporate fund drives encourage low-level managers to engage in arm-twisting and knee-capping for donations

American corporations lean socialist and the public is unaware. They think because those at the top loot the wealth of the companies, they are "capitalists".

The politburo does well. The rest do not. 2 systems. George Orwell said that under Communism, "all animals are equal, some are more equal than others".

There is NO reason to mandate that employees give to liberal United Way. Even if you target your contribution, you are still feeding the beast.

There is NO reason to indoctrinate employees on politically correct re-education seminars on the environment, homosexuality, et al. Employees can work cooperatively without being "retaught" that sin is not sin or that MAN is killing the planet and must bow before Lord Algore.

I dunno, I'm not at the top and I do pretty well. Company pays me a fair wage for what they ask me to do, I think. I've certainly worked in a whole lot worse places.

But, then again, I'm at a small company. Less Bureaucracy. Less management, and accordingly, less meddling. I have no problem with walking into the Owner's, or the CEO's office, and saying what's on my mind. I'd better not be there to discuss the weather, but if there's something up, they encourage - no, they *expect* - employee input.

The bigger, Fortune 500, places I've worked aren't as open. The C-level execs are generally all nice guys, though. But - then again - they can afford to be as they pay people to be mean for them. It's always the lower-level wanna-bes that I had troubles with.
