Wednesday, September 17 - Alphabet Soup

   Amerson Corper was the CEO of Limitations inc. Briskly walking to his next meeting, he questioned the mission statement of his company. “Creating a better tomorrow.” Drudge, his best friend and assistant, had come up with it fifteen years prior. Everything was going smoothly until earlier that year. Framed for murder, and disrespected by everyone in the nation, Amerson thought it would be best to put this company behind them all until the scandal died down. Great pains were taken to release a statement that was indirect and did not address the issue. Having a scandal of this proportion was the last thing this famous company needed. Indeed, this company had brought the world back on its feet after the worst war in history. Just in time, Amerson Corper had swooped in and put a stop to a gnawing hunger problem cursing the world. Knowing that there was suffering occurring everywhere he went, he placed limitations on all of the food and water supplies around the world. Limitations inc, formed after Amerson had designated the middle of the United States and most of Brazil for the food supply of the world, and then created a system of water supply and meticulously placed wells around the world. Making billions of dollars for creating a network of farms and wells was something anyone could have done, but Amerson was the only one who actually put in the effort to make it happen. Nobody could have foreseen this type of regeneration and growth in the world after such a devastating war. Once most of the food ran out, most people had turned to drugs and alcohol to sustain themselves for another day. People did not know how to handle a world that was so desolate and obsolete, and so many people took their own lives out of fear. Quitting was not an option, Amerson had decided. Restoring the world into the powers it had been and making it even better was what he believed in; hence the mission statement. Shut away in his office building, Amerson had a thought. The world needed him to maintain the agriculture and distribution aspect of the world. Under the new laws set by the president of the world, he could not be accused of something he did not do. Very few people actually believed in him now, though. Weather he would run this company with force or with compliance, he knew what he had to do. X-radiation bombs that had killed so many people lately had been linked with him, which was why he was disrespected by most of the world’s citizens. Yet, he knew that he had nothing to do with them, and he wanted to make things right and continue to provide food and support to the world. Zealously, Amerson called Drudge in the middle of the hallway on the way to the meeting, and announced that he would run for president of the world.
