Thank you for your kind words.
Not long ago I heard a very interesting interview concerning multinational companies. British Petroleum for example has more economic power than Argentina. The heads of multinationals are not elected and not limited by a say 6 year "term of service" unlike governments for example. Multinationals can operate in secret and silently, undisturbed by media and others who might get insight in their actions.
There are certain things everybody knows. Often not governments are leading the country but unions of these multinationals, using the leaders of governments as their puppets.
They destroy the idea of free markets, because they can use their own outlets in other countries to avoid exchange rates, import and export duties etc.
Multinationals with enough influence slow down the appliance of new technologies. Have you ever wondered why our cars are petroleum driven for more than 60 years? Do you really believe that no more efficient technology is available that is even cheaper than the one used now?
Media who's duty it would be to unveil such mismanagement is not even gawking. They might be even controlled by those multinationals.
You get the point.
I'm not here to critizise anything. I only want to enhance my context and bring certain things to my concious attention. Everybody who has an opinion is welcome to share it with me. I appriciate that very much. I find this topic very interesting because I don't believe anymore in a perfect world as it is often promoted.
If everybody knows a detail of something, we could put it together to a greater picture.
