Ideas for project - "Colonization of your lifeworld" & Marx/Manifesto and Jean Kilbourne's "Killing Us Softly" video in relations to Marx/Mills

1) Post thoughts on some aspect of the "colonization of your lifeworld" and relate it to Marx and the Manifesto:  

a) For those of you who are on TheFacebook.com, you can check out the
link I've posted to an article that argues that TheFacebook is a form of Big
Brother.  You can relate Marx's argument to this article;

b) Or you can draw some example from some relationship or role that you
are involved in which applies to what Marx has said about the alienating
effects of capitalism, i.e., how the "systems world" of money invades or colonizes
your lifeworld.

Include at least 1 or 2 citations from the "Communist Manifesto" as an illustration of how Marx applies to your example/experience.  You may also draw on my summary of Marx as well as the Ritzer, if you wish.
1-3 paragraphs is/are sufficient.  
include the references to Marx. You can draw on examples from your own experience, to talk about your own life, to use the first person and to generally try and connect what Marx is saying about the systems world of capitalism to your own life and make it as relevant as possible

2) Jean Kilbourne's "Killing Us Softly" video:
Thoughts on the video and relate reactions to Marx and/or Mills.
