| Notes |
disposability"Employers are willing to pay a higher cost for temp laborers because they are disposable. 'We call it pimping people out,' says Suzie Qusenberry, 'because that's really what it is. I'm going to pimp you out for $8 an hour and all you're going to get is $5.35.' They take the money and you do the work. Isn't that just like pimping?'" dysfunction"But the dysfunctional nature of the corporation is deeper than executive fraud or phony profits. The corporation's legally privileged structure and unbounded scale generate a different kind of corruption--the irresponsibility of concentrated, self-aggrandizing power." (p. 205) |
