Corporate America, however, eats this Dumb and Dumber crap up with a straight face. It's Screwtape's oldest and best trick -- get idiot humans to debase what is beautiful (in this case, U2's "One") and worship what is ugly . . . or at least what is really, really stupid.
This level of mammon worship and corporate moronity is definitely enough to make you understand why there are Marxists in the world. Not that the Marxists have the answer to anything, but you can understand the "why" of it all.
