The Emerging Young Adult



                                                            



Despite how strong you are, like ants are known for, this is how the fight  against big corporations actually looks like. In this bout,  the little guy is going to get crushed and at end of this movie the dead bug will not get the female ant. Lately in the world, this is the thousand word illustration which represents best the situation. 


Without ever being new, this has been the interpretation that men with greed and vanity have selectively preferred to understand the rules. The game has never been fair for those who try to play by the rules. Furthermore, those who have all the power know how to navigate in the obsessive waters of their greed with best the lawyers their money can afford. 


Until the less and unlikely day money breaks up with the law, the truth will keep being as invisible as Caspar the friendly ghost..  This really changes the meaning of being there even if you do not see me.



Now the question that I wanted to ask the readers is,


“ How do you feel about stopping bullies while we are living in a world who directly or indirectly support Corporate bullying? 

 


Within the documentary DANGERS OF FOOD PROCESSING THE PEOPLE WHO MAKE US FAT, we learn that major corporations are playing an unfair game by conditioning us to want their products. They use unfair tactics to get us addicted. The best example is how young kids would be able to spot any giant M form McDonald before you could say Ronald. It is to the point that if I was babysitting any young children I would train that if they ever get lost to go to and wait in  McRonald Park. I really think that McDonald should have such a program. 



            Aside from the big law firms that they have under their payroll, major companies have enough money to put people who share their views on the payroll.  Most people feel bad and think that it is their fault that they are really unable to do anything about their weight. 


In spite of the fact that each person is responsible for his health, it is unfathomable that there are people who strive to make a profit by selling harmful produce. With our demanding schedules, the time to make all the research necessary to understand what goes in our body is an ongoing decline. Also, when we finally do get the time, a new research comes to contradict the previous practices that we have gruelingly learned to embrace.


            These concepts are so confusing that people have no idea where to turn. In the end, they get fattter and most studies support that people who are over weight become easily the target of bullies because on the other side dieting companies who constantly remind people that they should go on a diet and that being over weight is out of the norm. It's a set-up for failure on both side.

"My God I got to check my weight".



            After a study with 800 children, the researcher established that their excess of weight contributed for them to get picked on 65 % more than the other adolescents. This is what they discovered when they compare the BMI of the children. The study clearly showed that there was a correlation between bullying and obesity. Several big companies contributed to the problem. 


As a result, I concluded that the all to high pressures of major corporation in their quick fix solutions to weight loss contributed to bullying. In addition, these while these young adults were struggling to lose the extra pounds,  they also found themselves amidst a crisis identity which took their focus away from ways to handle with bullying. Beside, they have grown so accustomed to intimidation that they sadly thought that it was normal like hazing only happens during the first week of College or University.

Major companies are here to make a profit. You would think that keeping healthy customer was a concern, and yet this could not have been further from the truth. This is what bullying is. When someone is willing to put you in a bad situation to get something from you; in this case it was the consumer’s money. When money was on the scale, it became very clear that the customer's weight would not tilt in their favor. And playing fair was never part of the game plan.



-Where do you get your information on how to remain healthy?

-How committed are you to fight against their unfair tactics?
