ITT we discuss companies/industries you hate
What are some of the companies or industries you hate.
Either you hate them because they lack in customer service, are just plain boring, too expensive or they piss you off in any other way.
I will start by calling out:
*The shipping industry which is extremely ****in slow to process packages.
*Old media which pushes a bunch of crap people don't care about and is lobbied by every corporate group out there.
*Youtube which is the biggest video site out there but increasingly plagued by spammers, ****ty cam whores and boring failed videos.
*(an eg of a boring industry is airlines before Richard Branson started Virgin Airlines)
What company or industry makes you rage?

The Pharmacuetical industry is one of the top peices of ****e in the world. $1.6 billion in the last ten years to the government and politicians to hawk their unsafe products.
I also hate the elite banking industry. How can anyone not? Private central banks are what ruined America.

Ya undoubtedly.
Pharmacuetical companies which produce good stuff often cannot afford to spend hundreds of millions for approval and companies which are cashed up will just spend so their pos drug goes through.
Not so much a problem with the industry though more with the USFDA and similar organistations in other countries.

Recording industry (can't rightfully call them "music" industry)
Movie industry (too few original movies and too many remakes / derivatives)
Not necessarily an industry, but TV network newscasters drive me nuts. They insult my intelligence, tell me how to dress and what to do, and meanwhile ignore the important news. I literally can't watch the news.

arts industry [zero creativity these days and obsessed with maintaining dwindling profits]
mid range fashion industry [cheap stores are good for basics, high end fashion is actually good quality and looks better. mid range is just tacky]
telecoms [good companies but horrifically incompetent front line staff]
teaching/education [always complaining about such a hard job. take a step into the real world and see how hard you have it]

I fuking hate the media. Too many retards take everything they say as fact and they can pretty much control anything they want. Last election was a prime example.
I also hate most of the government, though it's not really an industry. They don't give a fuk about the citizens. Example: The economy is in a tailspin, they're giving out "bailouts" left and right, unemployment is rising and what do they do? Give themselves a raise, as if the $200K+ they're making isn't enough. Fuking scum.

I fukking HATE MLM companies. ALL of them. I hate their guts. Every family member and friend that has joined one has been scammed of all their money. Multi-level, direct selling, pyramid scheme, ponzi scheme, call it whatever you want; herbalife, avon, celltech, amway, quixtar, agel, topperware, ALL OF THEM ARE THE SAME SH!T. And please don't respond with "not my mlm company, they're different because of their revolutionary compensation plan and groundbreaking technology!" I've heard it all before. It's a scam, a fraud, only the founding families make any money. Deal with it.

Their commercials are relentless and they can't even pronounce it right. It's VOH-nedge, not VAH-nedge. Pisses me off. Plus they have that awful "whoo-hoo" song.
