Introduction

Are you happy with your lot? What actually is wrong with the world? Indeed for most of us and most of the time modern life is bliss. But it could be so much better, couldn't it. All those little niggling problems or not so little could easily be corrected, couldn't they?
This blog is to try and change the world!! I feel that if we, as individuals each changed small things in life, together this change would gradually creep up tp the top and change the world into an even better place!
This is always occuring to me, but as my life is reasonably good I never get around to doing anything.
The object of this blog is not a whingeing board, but a serious attempt to see if the people can change or adjust the way the world behaves.
We all know our lives are ruled by corporations and thereby a few powerful people. Their object is to take as much money off each of us and make us enjoy making them even richer and more powerful. OK, so we live in a capitalist society so you would expect that. But should they be robbing us? Of course not! Do you feel guilty about complaining?
Why should we not expect to have good food and service in a restaurant? Why should you feel guilty that an expensive tradesman has not done the job properly?
There seems to be a culture today where you are provided with a service and a bill that is not right or fair. It is known by the supplier that you may do one of two things;
1. Do nothing and pay the bill
2. Complain and ask for a reduction or compensation.

If you choose 1. either by not noticing the bill is exhorbitant or embarrassed to make a fuss you are being legally ripped off.
If you choose 2. The supplier will apologise profusely and offer instantly to reduce your bill.

This happens to me quite often so I assume it is general practice.
Is this the correct way to do business?
