What I have learned  from today class: Social media and cooperation!
                It was wonderful  class  discussion about  social media and  big corporation. There were an arguments about  freedom on chose on what we eat, drink ......................against corporation responsibility  for what they produce to consumers.  Some of my colleagues  had this  idea of individual  freedom of chose equal to cooperation freedom, so they concluded that cooperation  can produce any type of product and service that's fit for their profit  in a free market system  because it's up to the  consumer to busy it or not . In other way, supplier has little or nothing to do with product and service quality intermes  of  general public safety  because  their main goal is to make profit. Thus, social media should support these cause for corporation to sell their product and service, and consumer to chose among these bad products( freedom of chose). The other my favorite  argument was,  social media can be used  as a tool for fighting cooperation to be responsible for what they produce to consumer, and there must  be  moral and legal obligation to  corporation who produce good and service for general public. if, for example, I want to open bakery that's unhealthy for  people , I should not be allowed to go out in the free market and compete to sell my product.

  1. Seeing as our natural instinct is to look out for only ourselves first and have our needs - and wants once those are - met, most people do not have social and environmental responsibility on their minds very much, if at all. That is why those who are passionate about these kind of responsibilities should do as much about it as they can rather than just complain that others, especially corporations, are not doing anything. With "new media" aka mostly social media there is no excuse for them to get their views out to hundreds, thousands, maybe even millions of other people.
