The problem is, that business entities only aim to maximize their monetary
win. This is perfectly okay, because that's what the investors (the
capitalists) gave their money for. But it is also a positive feedback loop
without any inbuild self-control regarding social aspects. And any system
without a self-regulation, i.e. a negative feedback-factor, will finally
end in a catastrophy.

I sometimes wish, that all humans believe in reincarnation. It would only
need a simple calculation of probability - plus some pictures of any slum
in the world - to make a new humanist :-)
How do you like your new t-shirt "original childwork from India"?
