I find myself doing the same thing these days. Good to recognize opposing sides of any argument, but in practice all things in moderation. Hierarchical authority and responsibility as well as freer communication and action channels. And that's true even with a "service" model .... management nearer the top "serving" the operational needs of those lower down the hierarchy - which is the way I tend to see it. With rights come responsibilities.

Make sure the candidates and incumbents, you vote for in November this year and in 2012, do not belong to any of the Global Elitist Organizations: Bilderberg Group, Trilateral Commission, Council on Foreign Relations, Club of Rome, Skull and Bones, Canadian Council of Chief Executives,
Harvard Elite Players, Goldman Sachs, International Monetary Fund, The United Nations, World Health Organization, World Trade Organization.

The reason we must vote out Establishment Government Representatives, whether they are Left or Right, Incumbent or Candidate is explained on this 2 minute News Clip below:

We Americans, who wish to stop the thieving and robbing, of your income and resources in your country, by the Globalist Banksters need to, "End the Fed"! Help Ron Paul out on this one folks! There in lays our freedom!

PS: Please pass this information on to your friends - as - time is getting short, Obama and the Elites are pushing hard to start World war III with Iran, a distraction to save Obama's failing presidency, in an effort to get the sheep rallying around Obama! As wellas other PSYOPS!

In fact, the only reason these microsites exist is so that some clueless product or brand manager can masturbate to the *idea* of Brian just LOVING YOUR BRAND OMG SO MUCH HE MAKES TEH VIDEOS!!!#111

Truth is, Brian came to your site, and was considered a "bounce."

He left immediately, and so did the 20 year olds, the 15 year olds, and the 40 year olds. Because he was hoping to find dietary information on your sausage, or maybe if it was Fred Meyers or Safeway that sold them. Turns out, he DOES make videos, they're of, and for, his friends. Not his sausage.

We are terribly sorry for the misunderstanding. It turns out you weren't the target for our advert. We're working on making our content more targeted through digital distribution tools, but for now you're going to have to simply take what you can away from our messaging - which was clearly about sausage - and simply not participate in the microsite and video part.

See, there are people out there in the world who have a job that involves work they find particularly interesting, and it does more for them than paying their bills. Your attitude toward work and life suggest that you wouldn't be the type to make a video even if it brought you definite rewards. This is called a psychographic, Brian.

Also, being 27, you're right on the edge of a technological and behavioral shift. All the people younger than you have grown up with video editing software and the ability to dynamically use the Internet and technology in unprecedented ways. It is they who will go to our site and submit a video. And they will share, and comment, and take interest in the possibilities of their creativity and the creativity of others. (That is, if we do a good job providing them with a reason to be there and to contribute. Leave that up to us).

It's a new culture, Brian - your having children in the past few years and working a job that likely doesn't hinge on the latest developments of the social web has perhaps kept you a bit behind the curve. Don't worry, though - you'll eventually assimilate. And so will 100 million others just like you. In the bell curve graph you're what we call the "late majority." Maybe we can talk next year. Perhaps by then your kids will be sleeping in on Saturdays and you can use that time to explore the creative, social web. We'll be there - feel free to look us up.

Sincerely,
