Governments which are still closer to being democratically elected than the C-suite of these "successful companies". I'll take the lesser of the two evils, thanks.
These C-suite successful companies were at least built and designed by successful people, who succeeded by being moral human beings at least more moral than most scummy politicians. Even if the C-suite companies are no longer directed by them, which some of them are, their culture of being moral human beings tend to live on. Politicians on the other hand, like Mr. Trump, are usually born-rich buffoons who do anything…
At least in our neoliberal system all these assholes are counter-powers to each other. Too bad for the environment, though.

French news mentions that the alleged crime is atteinte à la probité or lack of probity. In other words, things like corruption, influence peddling and so on. There are scant few details available, but this might be something more serious than just plain old tax evasion.

Wow. Never knew about CNN Lite. It loads instantly like good websites should and the content is readable because ads are not flying in from all over the place. Does this work for all CNN articles?

While Alcatel, Nokia, Ericsson, had to play by the rules of their countries (not bribing officials in foreign locations), Huawei was able to gobble up most of the bids across Asia and Africa. While the Western telco players were held accountable in their bidding process, Huawei managed to gain a competitive advantage by playing under a different set of rules. For this reason it's impossible for any multinational to c…

I hope you and your sharp opinions make you happy. You don't need to worry about what kind of person I am.

Could you please stop posting flamebait (including nationalistic flamebait, which you've been doing repeatedly) and/or unsubstantive comments? It's not what this site is for, and destroys what it is for. Once accounts go too far down this road, we end up having to ban them.
