Predictable. Oil is all over the Middle East; people try drilling for water but are sad when they hit oil. :/ |
|
|
Sounds like half the world. |
|
|
Yup.
But hey, the only alternative is the government nationalizing the oil fields and redistributing the wealth to the poorer areas. But that would be Communism. |

Duh because of lack of US presence there going to slip back into their old ways. |
|
|
What's the old ways? People not starving to death? |
|
|
That won't happen though. The Capitalist oil companies have control there.
It's more Corporatism than Capitalism. Then again, they're practically the same thing.
Helping third world countries isn't profitable. |

Urgh.... I'm regretting my beliefs. I think I just joined the movement because I'm a nonconformist. |

"Duh because of lack of US presence there going to slip back into their old ways."
The old days was a totalitarian rule, not a corporatist one. |

Actually it can be. Set up huge factories there for whatever your selling hire mass employees pay them very little and then keep all the money for yourself. profitable for you and somewhat profitable for them. |

saddam was a communist wasnt he? |
|
|
They already do that though. -.-
The working class is being abused, and the oil companies don't care. |
|
|
You just described a sweatshop. Congratulations on justifying slavery. |
|
|
"saddam was a communist wasnt he?"
He called himself Socialist. People weren't in the streets starving under his rule.
He might have been a totalitarian prick, but at least he cared. |

No not sweatshop they would just have every right an american worker would except health care because they are a third world country and large pay. |
|
|
That made no sense.
They would have every right of an American worker, except health care? Who made you the Corporate Overlord? |

Saddam Hussein caring. Thats funny. No he executed people he didnt like and people he "thought" were a threat really he is basically another Stalin. |
|
|
I know. He cared about the citizens who didn't cause trouble.
I said he might of been a horrible dictator, but at least his citizens weren't starving. |

Me lol. And plus Im not saying I beileve in this Im just giving you what you could do. |
|
|
They have a corrupt government though. That's why the workers have been abused like they are now. |
|
|
From what I am seeing from the video, isn't healthy. "Children play on a street filled with sewage, grow up with all the signs of abject provety." It must be hard breathing and growing up in all that garbage. If I could go there for a couple days, I would try do something about that. |
|
|
You wouldn't want to. Iraq is pretty much a war torn land now.
Why wait for the apocalypse? Move to Iraq! |
|
|
I want to though. If I could make a difference in Iraq, I would. |

Communism will NEVER be executed democratically or as it was intended. People will not surrender the power. |
