Ism-ism is a boring subject

I’ve been quite busy this few weeks with works and life. First time in my life auditing a real world company and it was very tough. It’s not the audit process that hard for me, but to understand the system that we use was really take my time. Forget about my works.

Last few weeks, the 2012 budget has been present in parliament. The moment it’s finished, the floodgate for comments and criticism is open. But, I will not talk about the budget. I’m not in the right position to critique and comment the budget. My knowledge is limited to my laziness. I’m going to talk about the ‘capitalism’.

Capitalism is about money. This ‘ism-ism’ thing is a boring subject to us. But it’s not for the subject of ‘money’, ’Dollars’, ’Ringgit Malaysia’ and etc. Almost every single aspect of our life has been infected by this ‘ism-ism’. Every pieces of human being has been affected by the capitalism. We have live in this system for a very long time. And the effect that we can see is now, everything that we do and done is about money, money and money. We have been the slave for money.

Today, I watched a documentary of Food Industries in US. It’s called Food Inc. by Robert Kenner. Either the fact is true or not, I don’t know. But the fact that they showed is really important for us. It makes me think a lot of questions.

Do we eat foods or is it a chemical thing?

Our foods are safe or not?

Where is the food come from?

Do we live in a good life? A healthy one?

…then I think, we are not. For me, foods out there are not healthy anymore. The capitalism has pushed the industries, not in term of food only, but the industries in the whole world, to works for money. The morality and health aspect has been push away too.

Anyway, u guys should watch that documentary. Find it, download it, and watch it. Here the detail, Wikipedia and the imdb. I will tell the story of capitalism in the boring way later. For now, take care and Goodnight ..
