Interesting.

Big organizations have the power to compete with governments. Normally, their owners have good reasons to avoid this.

However, when such organizations are run not by the owners, but by hired managers, their reluctance should be weaker.

In a country with a centralized system of education, someone could use this system to unite all hired managers under one class.

Oh no! The Government Bureaucrat class is using public education to create the Private Bureaucrat class and take over the planet!

I think the writer missed a big part of the picture, the Board of Directors of starbucks. The board appoints all the senior management and has direct oversight. If a senior manager wants to open a new store he simply does so after consultation with the appropriate underlings, they don't have to consult the board for that, that's what they are hired for. But making global political statements, that's another matter all together and the board would definitely have to be consulted.

Now I for one think the article is bullshit. either it is directly misleading or the author is an idiot. Managers at this level are basically hatchet men/women, they move from corp to corp either destroying them, under sanction, or improving them by slashing wages and other profit increasing measures such as externalizing costs. Starbuck takeaway cups are an example of this. The board on the other hand is political by its very nature, you only have to look at the origins of its members to see that.

Starbucks today announced that Mellody Hobson will serve as the company’s next non-executive chair of its board of directors starting in March 2021. https://stories.starbucks.com/press/2020/starbucks-announces-the-appointment-of-mellody-hobson-as-non-executive-chair-of-the-board/

Hobson earned her AB from Princeton University’s School of Public and International Affairs.

In 2019, she was awarded the University’s highest honor, the Woodrow Wilson Award, presented annually to a Princeton graduate whose career embodies a commitment to national service.

"She is a member of The Rockefeller Foundation Board"

These people, hidden in the shadows, are the real controllers of the large corporations. They are part of the true elite I believe, the globalists, and they all work together to forward the aims of such. They are Whores of the NWO basically.

Once the bureaucracy gets big enough, it becomes too expensive to remove. And the capacity for rapid growth is one of their most recognizable traits. With invulnerability, comes corruption. After that, the more they grow, the less resources are left in the organization. Its ability to deal with them diminishes even further.

The will of the bureaucrats there become like the laws of nature. The laws of nature can't be denied, you have to study them and plan in accordance.

Does it really matter whether all bureaucrats consider themselves members of a single class, when they all act alike regardless? The words may differ, but the actions are similar. They have a shared cause.

What an utterly braindead comment. Have you been formally diagnosed yet?

This site desperately needs downvotes.

Most of the paragraphs ain't indented at all, but every so often it's tabbed over like half the page. Formatting quirks like this always distract me, lol.

"Small government" is for brainlet cucks who enjoy losing, constantly.

Wow, such a compelling argument! I love small government now!
