Even assuming that Cargill's good deeds are genuine,
and made with the best possible motives, I would still
prefer to live in a world where corporate largesse
isn't needed to do things that we should already be
doing for ourselves.
Education is a prime example. Why make our schools so
financially strapped that they apparently need the
relative pocket change from vending machines to pay
for neccessities?
The flip side of that, of course, is, exactly how is
it that Cargill (and Microsoft, and Phillip Morris,
and Target, etc.) have the financial wherewithal
to do all these nice things for society??? Just a
hunch, but I suspect that they might also be
spending a little of their dough on politics . . .
