    From Cradle to Grave

    Hi All,

    Watch out! This may be coming your way.

    This from the New York Times -

    South Koreans say they live in the “Republic of Samsung.”

    "Life can literally begin and end with Samsung: One can be born in a Samsung hospital; attend a Samsung university; honeymoon in a Samsung hotel; stock a Samsung-built apartment with Samsung appliances bought with a Samsung credit card; take children to Samsung amusement parks; and have one’s body, upon death, taken to a Samsung funeral center."

    Replace "Samsung" with a corporation of your choice.

    What a dismal prospect.

    Regards,

    Simon
    Never believe anything until it has been officially denied.

    And if you have a Samsung Note 7 they'll cremate you while they kill you.

    There are two ways to be fooled, one is to believe what isn't true, the other is to refuse to believe that which is true.

        In Britain it will be "Tesco"
        This is simply my opinion
