:17:01
you know let somebody
else deal with that.
:17:04
Let's let somebody else
supply the military power
:17:07
to the middle east to protect
the oil at its source.
:17:10
Let's let somebody else build
the roads that we can drive
:17:14
these automobiles on.
:17:16
Let's let somebody
else have those problems
:17:20
And that is where
externalities come from
:17:23
that notion of let somebody
else deal with that.
:17:26
I got all I can
handle myself.
:17:29
A corporation is an
externalizing machine
:17:31
in the same way that a shark
is a killing machine.
:17:35
Each one is designed
in a very efficient way
:17:39
to accomplish
particular objectives.
:17:42
In the achievement
of those objectives
:17:44
there isnt any question
of malevolence or of will.
:17:48
The enterprise
has within it
:17:50
and the shark
has within it
:17:52
those characteristics that
enable it to do that
:17:54
for which it was designed.
:17:56
The pressure is
on the corporation
:17:58
to deliver results now
:18:02
and to externalize
any cost
:18:04
that this unwary
or uncaring public
:18:06
will allow it
to eternalize.
:18:20
To determine the kind
of personality
:18:21
that drives the corporation
:18:22
to behave like
an externalizing machine
:18:25
we can analyze it
:18:26
like a psychiatrist
would a patient.
:18:30
We can even formulate
a diagnosis
:18:32
on the basis of typical
case histories of harm
:18:34
that is inflicted
on others
:18:37
selected from a universe
of corporate activity.
:18:55
Well this is the office
:18:57
of the national
labour committee
:18:59
here in the garment area
of New York City.
