Another look at the economy ....

[mimi]

I fully agree with you Christophe,

our two philosophies of life are very close and I can only agree for the moment

[neant]

But I find that in France, we are still not too badly served when I see the standard of living in Third World countries.

Keep in mind that if the third world is the third world, it is because the new world has plundered the third world.
In fact, from a historical point of view, we are in debt, that is certain, but vis-à-vis all the African countries ... that we have stolen.

To congratulate ourselves on our standard of living is surely not the right attitude to have, we should be ashamed, in fact ... with a little hindsight.

Yes, at first, then, being ashamed is no longer enough, we must take the measures allowing, each at his level to no longer be accomplices of this looting.

Starting by trying to save oil, for example, is not only good for the wallet, but when you know the number of conflicts involved, the number of dictators "installed" for oil, it is also an additional step. after shame.

Saying of the day (copyleft econologie.com if source cited)

We are in a consumer society

[Targol]

We are in a consumer society

Is it keyboard dyslexia or a play on words?

Since I lean for the 2nd solution, the neologism "consumption" comes from consumption + consolation

Ah well ! Is that I must have talents as a neologistician ... (hu?)

We had thought of making a zoli Tshirt with this slogan but hey a little too "moralizing" a priori ...

[Targol]

Mouaifff.

Personally, in this society, there is not much that consoles me because we are forced to consume to have the impression of living ...

Another slogan:
18th Century, Hiomo Lumièrus: "I think therefore I am"
20th Century, Homo Consumeris: "I consume therefore I am"
21st Century, Homo Poubellus: "I waste therefore I am".

After the great rejected thinkers in need of notoriety, Allègre, Kouchner, Rocard, Lang, here is the most intelligent: J. Attali, who gave his report to boost growth in France.
Our President of the opening, (after having experienced his doctrine of rupture / Cécilia), will be delighted.
Only good proposals ...
Abolition of the precautionary principle ... (European principle)
Abolition of all the laws which regulated the trade, which protected the personnel a little, and wedged the anarchic extension of the large surfaces.

Growth, growth at all costs! But with what rotten products ???

Is it compatible with ecology, and future decisions coming out of the environment

"I consume therefore I am"

We wanted to make a "militant" Tshirt a few months ago with exactly the same slogan but it didn't happen ...

Finally it is not too late to relaunch the idea ...

I had also thought of "I sort therefore I am" less provocative ...

ps: Edit not seen the date of 2006! You were ahead of us then! Great minds as they say ...
