The corruption of Capitalism in the Unites States Often times, Americans do not realize the corruption that surrounds them in their nation. Capitalism is an economic and political system in which the country’s trade and industry is controlled by private owners for profit, rather than by the state. Business owners, CEO’s, corporations, and large businesses have the propensity of taking extreme advantage of the power capitalism brings. For decades companies and corporations have been taking unexplainable benefit of the power they have. Capitalism in the Unites States leads to corruption. The meat packing industry in the U.S is one of the top industries that make an example of bringing corruption to new heights. According to the article “Corrupt American Food Industry is too powerful”, the meat packing industry obtains far more power than what should be acquired. The people of America have the right to know what process the meat they are consuming goes through in order for it to sit in their refrigerators. The American people should have the right to know what kind of cruel difficulties come into play when it comes down to the meat industry. The largest meat packing industries make their money by slaughtering animals, and harming living beings behind closed doors. “Welcome to the land of the free, where we consider prioritizing money over clean resources and human and animal welfare” (Ray1) is used to demonstrate the way the meat packing industry within the Unites States operates (1). The Meat industry treats their workers the same way they treat the animals. They treat these living beings as if they were worthless. Slaughterhouses kill thousands of hogs a day and pack thousands chickens tightly together like a jail-cell.

America will fall into a time of no economic benefit, and extreme political conflict, ruining the even slightest chance on economic growth (Greenwhich1). Americans have come to the “resolution” of borrowing money to pay off debt. This also comes into play as what gas lead Americans to stop saving all they have earned, and spend both what they receive and borrow, These “resolutions” have brought Americans to an end stage crisis. It then leads to requirements of corrupt capitalism (3). The United States has a corrupt system of money hungry companies that care very little to not at all about the American people and what they provide them. This capitalist society has led a nation to a time of great corruption. Corruption in places one would never think to look, but have right before their eyes.

- The National Debtargumentative essayEvery day in New York City, hundreds of people walk past a huge digital billboard with giant numbers across its face. Each person who walks past this billboard sees a slightly different arrangement of numbers, growing larger every second. This board is the National Debt Clock, representing the over 14 trillion dollars currently owed by the United States. While some people claim that the national debt is caused by the falling economy, most maintain that the debt itself causes the poor economy (Budget Deficits 2007). Rising debt leads to higher interest and investment rates, and cuts into our national savings. Ignoring the national debt leaves the major burden of paying it off to later generations, while meanwhile allowing our country’s economy to further drop and our dependency on other nations to rise.

He simply points the finger and leaves the reader depressed, without means or logic to correct the situation. After reading, we enthusiastically agreed with Schlosser when he pulled on our emotional series. His logic was also substantial in this chapter with his thorough research and extensive truthful support. However, because he does not offer any solution to the problem, it diminished significantly from his argument. Although Schlosser's argument cannot be labeled an attack, in our minds, it certainly became nothing short of an overly emotional, well-jointed rage. Schlosser uses these numbers to show the errors of certain meat packing companies and in turn, how this has caused massive illness and injury to the general public.

1941 wordsRead More - Factory Farmingopinion essayIndustrialization has revolutionized America’s economy. Mass production allows products in demand to be easily available for purchase. But at what point does this system cross the line? It is one thing to mass produce electronics and clothing, for example, but applying mass production to the meat industry is entirely different. In order to generate the most profit, livestock are killed systematically at a massive scale on an assembly line. These animals are treated as nothing more than objects that can be processed, packaged, and sold to a consumer. For this business to take place with both time and cost efficiency, the welfare of the livestock is placed as one of the last priorities. Factory farming has gotten out of hand, and America is doing an inadequate job managing and enforcing the legal guidelines that explain what is permitted to take place in these institutions. It is necessary for there to be serious reformations nationwide towards the care and handling of animals, in addition to monitoring the practices that take place in the farming industry.

But chances are, you’ve never really thought that hard about where your delicious meal came from. The first image that comes to most people’s mind when thinking about farm animals is an idyllic pasture with cows contentedly mooing and munching on lush green grass. While this scene may be a reality for some organic, sustainable farms, when it comes to factory farms, nothing could be further from the truth. They instead, keep animals penned inside small wire or iron cages, and these animals will probably never see the light of day until they are loaded onto the truck destined for the slaughterhouse.
