The 5 Most Horrifying Things Corporations Are Taking Over

This is a good read on Cracked.com.
It's really pissed me off how we have started outsourcing our military. Dick Cheney back in the 80's set out to get private contractors to take over the work of our American soldiers. Well it took off big time under Bush Jr. These mercenaries make a shit ton more money than our regular soldier while they stand side by side with them often doing the exact some job. It started with KBR, now Blackwater or whatever it's calling itself this month is the huge one.

The article talks about the privatization of the prison system. The bias of corporate news. How science is being effected by the almighty dollar and also hospitals. I though it was an interesting read so decided to share it.
