Comments on: Copenhagen, Chavez and China — a question of priorities http://www.dinocrat.com/archives/2009/12/18/copenhagen-chavez-and-china-a-question-of-priorities/ Thu, 09 Feb 2012 11:49:05 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1.3 By: Rani Thompson http://www.dinocrat.com/archives/2009/12/18/copenhagen-chavez-and-china-a-question-of-priorities/#comment-339532 Rani Thompson Fri, 18 Dec 2009 03:37:58 +0000 http://www.dinocrat.com/?p=13480#comment-339532 I would argue that capitalism is driven by the affuenza that western countries need to feel whole, a hole in the soul is never filled with "stuff". We in the west don't even have the decency to turn our trash into fuel. We dump trash in Africa, using their poverty and cruel governments, but even more disgusting is how the large drink and textile corperations dig wells. We would rather fuel the war machine. As for Mr. Chavez, he is using what seems to be the way of humans in charge, war.
