Greed, coupled with stupidity, is a road to nowhere. I have tried to help them for the benefit of all parties but they are too blinkered to see sense. Greed with intelligence is the most productive combination you can get - it drives advancement, expansion and improvement across the board. Without that drive to make things bigger, better, easier and more profitable we'd still be living in mud huts.No, it's the truth. You said yourself, GREED IS GOOD, but according to your posts on another thread your treatment at the hands of your own family would suggest that it ain't so good. I tell you, without some slack, some compassion, some accommodation of other people lives then society won't work out. Mercenary capitalism is a disaster just as corrupt Communism is a disaster. The middle road is Christianity. That's why Christianity came about.
And that's the very last thing I'll ever post, because it's become an addiction and wasted hours of my time.
The trouble with Communism is that idiot leaders never get there comeuppance as no matter how incompetent they are, they keep their position as the normal rules of business don't apply and so they do not become bankrupt and thrown out of business.
Market forces are a great leveller.

I doubt having an imaginary friend will help.
Please explain why you have this view given that China and Russia have or soon will surpass the home for free market capitalism in financial terms. I trust you can get a summer discount on thermal underwear when we switch off the gas and you freeze next winter.
Just do the maths Western Europe needs 2000 shiploads per year of LPG to substitute for our gas. There are only 400 vessels built. Plus there are NO export facilities built in USA.
Talk about shooting one's self in the foot. Now we are giving 20 years in prison for growing GMO as a terrorist offence.
As to getting anything in space no way hosea. As to corruption why have Chevron an American company invested 10 billion $ in west Ukraine. To extract gas and oil. Why is kerry's Son now a director of the largest energy company in Ukraine.
...You switch off the gas next winter and we might have short term problems which we will overcome with alternative fuel sources, boosting our own economy along the way,,developing fracking, nuclear etc. You will have cut off another source of revenue for your country making it poorer. That natural gas is only worth something if you are selling it. As usual though, bullying and intimidation always seems to be the tool of preference for certain regimes...
I have this view because
Insurance premiums up and benign weather last year means less paid out so the boys at the top get to cream a bit of it off.
So bonus' down for customers, bonus' up for the top team. happy days. I think this sort of system is not healthy pesonally.
Just to bring this up again but it was quite interesting what the finance journalist in the Mail said about the renumeration for what some of you consider the financial genuis in the mutual:

I always wonder what they do with their time sitting at their desks. What decisions they make etc.
How did they get there?
