By sharing a common and important mission, we are united and focused, and have found a secret weapon that ensures we always win.

But most of the time, they're not the same. Their agenda is just simply to sell plastic discs at any cost, and yours is to preserve - at least in my case - your integrity, and hopefully sell some plastic discs, too.
