the dinner plate of democracy?
Like this post? Yes | No    

so we are bringing democracy to iraq ? we are fighting for democracy around the world? while we do this look at the things we do to promote it! iraq is just the latest fiasco! how many times has the powers that be used the "threat" to allow millitary action in outher countries to protect, "amarican intrests" witch turns out to be to protect mulinational corporations based in amarica intresteset i for one am tierd of my tax dollars going to protect and subsidise these corperations that take our tax base and national recources and jobs out of the country! i am not naitionalistic i think every country should be able to trade with every outher what im talking about is FAIR trade and the right of countries to decide their own fate! if they screw up then give them anouther hand up! im talking about corps. using our resources and millitary for their owen profit! not to mention useing our military to protect the exploitation of pepoles who can not defend themsevls wether it be millitarily or financialy! it has come to my attn. that laws are and have been implemented in iraq that will eventualy prevent farmers from saving seed year to year!! and effectively keeping them dependant on companies like but not limited to monsanto terminator seed that was givin freely by texas a&m for supposedly reconstruction efforts but these comp. own the pat. on it they cant continue to grow it without paying roaylyies to the holder of the pat. similar things are occuring in outher countries with tradisional crops that have been grown for centuries only differance is now big companies are getting patentes for what was developed by indigenous pepoels so it becomes law that you cant grow it without paying royalties to the one that holds the pat even if your family has been doing so for tousands of yrs !!!!! democracy? freedom?? i think not!!!!!!...
