Corporate Greed: The Modern Scrooge

Corporate Greed: The Modern Scrooge

My name is Harry and this is just my opinionated thought on Corporate companies and the staffing agencies. I know a lot of people probably wont read this due to their own apathy and lack of will to care about the situation that shadows us all; But I feel that someone should say something and this is my attempt in doing so. Everything below is from my mind and was not taken from anyone else except from my own common knowledge and experiences.

(History of "Value/Currency") Over the course of time man has made material items to be worth value in their way of life. Over more time man made a system and those who made it were of greed because he was man/woman of the flesh. His lust led him to create money and this money created creed because it was of man. The money is a idea to have a civil and non-primitive way of life. Being civil is to have a will, to know when to say "no" and when to say "yes." To be primitive is to lust for everything and to have your way with anything you desire. In a primitive world the fact is yes males would dominate this is just logic. They would rape, destroy, and erase all that is civil. The good men would be killed, the churches would burn, the children would be soiled in wickedness. The feminist would be raped for being so feminist, irrational, illogical, and whinny. Primitive anarchist do not care about rights of others nor do they care for individual safety. I do not say these things to hurt feelings I say them because this is the most logical conclusion I can come to.

(IMPORTANT) "Corporate GREED and the slaves they Enlist"

What is a Corporate slave? I believe a corporate slave is a man or woman who have debts and are forced to work or meet the severe consequences. Almost everyone has to go into debt in order to get anywhere in life. Examples are the following: Cars, Houses, College, Investments, and more that I can think of right off hand. These debts are high and so it is hard to pay it down due to the interest. For example a car which cost to make is 2k at the most can cost 30 thousand new; Making a 28k profit plus interest racking it up to 35k if not more. These debts are caused from people who have the urge to be independent as most humans beings are instinctively susceptible to. I for one want to live on my own but that requires many things. I need a car in order to get a job, I could do a bike but in a economy where jobs are scarce I prefer a car which maximizes my options. You need a place of residence which can be pricey but most people prefer a house because it is a sign of ownership and freedom. Others need college in order to make more money to live but in reality are paying that college degree off for years. Now if you do not pay these debts off you can be fines more money and taken to court to most likely to go to jail and force to pay it back still once out. So we must work and never have time to pursue our dreams because the system is set up to keep us in check and the people who made the system living like kings. When are we as human beings going to make a stand together and say, "hoimie this shit sucks!" and do something about it? It doesn't stop there! Let me continue with more ass raping we all have to endure. Onward to the mathematical topic side of where your money goes.

(Staff Agencies and the Corporate Lust)

I know many of us go through staffing agencies. What are staffing agencies? They are agencies that can help the Corporate companies not be held too liable for the common worker. Corporate companies do not want to hire anyone straight off because then they are liable to have a good excuse to terminate your job if they are not satisfied with your performance. If not the employee can file suit against them this is not in their best interest so they use staffing agencies in order to be less liable for you. Staffing agencies make a pretty good profit off your hard work.

(Mathematics for the Common mans pay.)

Example: Lets say you get paid 8 dollars an hour and you work through a staffing agency. You actually make 10 an hour but the staffing agency takes 2 an hour from every hour you work. One Man
One hour (60 minutes) = $2.00
8 hours (1 Day)= $16.00
40 hours (1 week) = $80.00
160 hours (1 month) = $320.00
1920 hours (1 year) = $3840.00
(Above is for one person and their 2 dollar deduction by the staffing company)

100 Men
One hour (60 minutes) = $200.00
8 hours (1 Day)= $1600.00
40 hours (1 week) = $8000.00
160 hours (1 month) = $32,000.00
1920 hours (1 year) = $384,000.00
( Above is for one hundred people and their 2 dollar deduction by the staffing company put together.)

Now ask yourself how many staffing agents you seen in the staffing building you went to and then ask how many are on site? I don't know about where you work but At my last few jobs through 4 different staffing agencies their were a total of 3-4 all together.
Now deduct 4 from the years worth of a 100 employees.
100 employees = $384,000.00 in one year / (divided by) 4 = 96,000
Now if there was 200 employees and the same amount of staffing agents double the 96k to nearly 200k.

(Corporate low paid employees and Corporate Masters Glory)

Lets say that there is a company that makes 30-40 million dollars a year. It employs 220 employees and has four facilities. The company pays its employee $10 an hour but after the staffing agencies cut $8 an hour. Below I will do what each employee makes with just 8 an hour.

1 of those 220 Employees $8.00
One hour (60 minutes) = $8.00
8 hours (1 Day)= $64.00
40 hours (1 week) = $320.00
160 hours (1 month) = $1,280.00
1920 hours (1 year) = $1,5360.00
(Above was 1 of 220 men being paid $8 an hour, below is 220 men paid 10 an hour without the staffing agency.)
1 of those 220 Employees $10.00
One hour (60 minutes) = $10.00
8 hours (1 Day)= $80.00
40 hours (1 week) = $400.00
160 hours (1 month) = $1,600.00
1920 hours (1 year) = $19,200.00
(Below is 220 Employees for $8.00 an hour COMBINED)
One hour (60 minutes) = $1,760.00
8 hours (1 Day)= $14,080.00
40 hours (1 week) = $70,400.00
160 hours (1 month) = $280,600.00
1920 hours (1 year) = $3,379,200.00
(Below this is 220 Employees for $10 an hour COMBINED)
One hour (60 minutes) = $2200.00
8 hours (1 Day)= $17,600.00
40 hours (1 week) = $88,000.00
160 hours (1 month) = $352,000.00
1920 hours (1 year) = $4,224,000.00
So if the company pays 4.2 mil in one year to all the employees that brings them down to 25.8-35.8 million a year.
Now I am going to add in other cost like Maintenance, medical, tax, and extra an hour for those paid more than 10 an hour forall4 warehouses yearly.

1 year expenses (overly dramatic)
Tax on 30-40mil divided by .07= 2.1-2.8Mil
medical 500,000-700,000
Maintenance 800,000.00-1,500,000.00
Expanding 1million-2million
1 mil extra an hour yearly
Total=8million (if I chose the highest which is 40 million a year.)
Add the amount paid to employees and you have 12.5 million deductions (which is over dramatic)
Profit is $27,500,000.00 after expenses.
Now if you doubled the employees pay by making it $20 an hour, the company still makes a profit of 23million dollars. Lets be generous and knock off another 3 mil for anything I may have forgotten which leaves the company at 20mil even. Can you say Employees are ass raped???
Now these companies earn the right to do what they want because they started off as nothing but once they have enough money for themselves could they just increase the pay in order to bring some prosperity back to the people? Better paid employees are happy and put more in the economy which would also jump start our economic system again and also allowing us to repay the nations debt. It's up to them to make a real change or will greed and money be all they ever see. We live once and so do they want to be remembered for being tyrants or honorable selfless men.

(I also want to apologize for the language in here just stressing how bad it sucks.)
I would write more but I am tired.
