Quote by: Morgan_Freeman the best thing we've got going for the poorer half of humanity is the advent of globalization and biotechnology |
It's also the WORST thing going, Morgan. Globalization largely benefits local elites, while doing nothing for the poverty stricken. Often it is worse than nothing, actively taking for private use the assets that have been common possessions for the indigenous populations. Things like lands without titles expropriated for golf courses in SE Asia, river valleys drowned by hydroelectric projects, forest resources simply cut and hauled away, leaving the land to dry out and perish. These were the possessions of the indigenous people, but their systems don't have the paperwork to prevail in a clash with globalization. Heartless people like you act as if a rising tide raises all boats, ignoring the fact of the EHMs whose mission it is to stove holes in the boats of those not favored.

Do you understand the irony of your statement here? Africa HAS learned by example! I wouldn't vote for you, I don't care how libertarian you claim to be. You are COLD, dude!
