(1) One of the many purposes behind government representatives is to give their constituents a voice to create laws that would benefit their communities, for instance, at its most minimal, adding a stoplight at a busy intersection or, more impactful, creating legislation to support the needs of a particular demographic, think The Americans with Disabilities Act(ADA), a grassroots law passed to support people with special needs where there was an absence of law protecting millions of people with disabilities. Is it different for individuals or communities to advocate and influence laws for personal gain, for instance, you live on the busy street corner or you have a child with disabilities that would directly benefit from the ADA, then for corporations to advocate for deregulation or tax incentives to move their business to a particular region? Find examples of legislative success or abuse to support your arguments. (2) What responsibilities exist for the people throughout the hierarchy of a business (employee->management->owners/shareholders, etc) when the service that is provided has been privatized and was once a societal benefit of the government, or to provide a social value altogether? Are the goals of corporate social responsibility only those of leadership? (3) Beyond anti-trust law and concerns with monopolies, how should conglomerates like Amazon with incredible market share and presence lead and participate in societal needs and progress? Can you find examples of corporations with large market shares demonstrating corporate social responsibility through industry/global leadership? (4) Are you a human, a consumer, or are you a collection of data points to be aggregated and sold? Do you have free will in our society driven by technology companies and analytics? How about through the lens of social-economic status and economic inequality? Discuss within the scope of the film. The film has been cut short. There is a remaining 45 minutes that focus predominantly on the role of corporations influencing governments and playing a larger than life constituent role. Much of it is very relevant for our daily lives in the early 2020s, the issue is that the piece is heavily focused on politics and could be very hard to tastefully discuss, or it could even be triggering given all our experiences during the pandemic. And so we are going to avoid this conversation for the meantime, but potentially return to it when more palatable. That being said, feel free to explore any other topics you found interesting from the documentary.
