Business
Unusual - Unethical
Practices
Who earns
per hour the US-president's yearly-wage?
Larry Ellison of Oracle
Corporation All the yearly revenue
(mind you, not just the profit) produced by the
several thousands of
Oracle employees in Holland, Belgium, Sweden,
Denmark, Norway, Finland, Switzerland, Austria,
Spain and Portugal put together does not cover
the $710 million take-home pay of the company's
top executive, Larry Ellison. And that is a company
that boasts of never paying a cent in dividend
to its shareholders. Now, who's robbing who?

Surprising Political toppers
Dead
and ruling? Dutch Socialist
Mess kicked out by one individual? Without
political experience, nor explicit political ideology,
nor even an organisation ready to run a sophisticated
campaign starting only a few weeks away from national
elections, and clearly lacking the teams of experts
required to run the heavy affairs of government,
Pim Fortuyn single-handedly shook Dutch politics,
got the long-ruling labour/liberal dominated government
voted out of power, was
murdered himself in the process and yet post-humously
ends up in the ruling government as the second
largest party in the country. Even more surprising
is that the liberals responsible for most of the
mess in the dumped government still ended up in
the new one, and with conrol of the departments
of their own choice. |
'Fair
Trade' ruins Development around the World
Bush plunges
the American economy from a historical surplus
into historical record deficit, while chasing
terrorism in far away countries he hardly understands.
He gives lip-service to woes about huge corporate
frauds that throw more innocent workers into unemployement
than the whole population of some cities. And
yet people are surprised that the stock market
is sharply falling again? If Republicans are fooling
around , when will Democrats wake up to speak
out? Are Argentina's woes worse than USA's only
by degrees?. |
Killing
innocent children for peace?
Questions on Bush's claims. Illegitimacy
of war. Pseudo-justification betrays democracy.
Bullying Iraq.
"Oily-garchy" - the real secret Return
to Re-armament. Harvesting Public Euphoria. Harnessing
for insatiable defence lobby appetite. The real
gains from the wars of George Bush. Political
folly on a global scale. |
