Share or perish. We can no longer exploit the rest of the planet so we can sit on our fat assess, drive fat cars, rest in fat houses with central heating and central air-conditioning.

I can see why you like this guy Start.

[StartLoving2]

Yup bro, I think he is a good man. But quickly getting a bit caught up with himself I fear; a bit sanctimonious. Your brother, Start

HE MUST GOVERN THE PLANET!

[Burnit700]

well said that man!

[HETAGU]

@MrSampy22 Yep, just like the US and Europe has made theirs on the backs of Indians, Africans, and Arabs. Pillaging their resources and undermining their governments.

[Norwenqa]

YES, long live Evo Morales!

I like this Bolivian President Evo Morales. A lot of 'so called' World leaders should take note as this is a REAL leader.

Al fin alguien dijo la verdad, espero q todos tomen conciencia y saquen conclusiones favorables. Sera dificil asimilar (digerir)especialmente para los capitalistas y egoistas q solo ven sus propios intereses, pero no olviden q las mentiras tienen patas cortas y cuando el pueblo tiene razon no hay gobierno q resista

Exactly, the rich doesnt have to work if he has slaves, yet Mr Sampy is still telling those slaves who were robbed to work. What a joke.

[libertits]

If we wouldn't still be colonized, perhaps it would be easier to make some developments and earn money in the first place? As long as someone is a slave, you cannot tell them to work nor to earn money. What an idiotic thing to say. We are third world because we are lazy, huh? Hitler also said to the Jews in concentration camps to ince to wok: arbeit macht uns frei. Work frees you, but all that work means nothing if you are a slave. D O Y O U U N D E R S T A N D?

[libertits]

Oh, it is so easy to say and to reduce things to words. You're just like your politicians, you make all this rhetoric but know nothing about how people in third world countries WORK THEIR ASSES OFF ALL DAY TO EARN A SHIT from companies who come out of YOUR countries there and to exploit them and treat them like subhumans. It's easy to say for some little idiot behind a computer screen to work, when you know nothing about working nor about how much people in 3rd world countries work to earn crap.

[glimakra]

MrSampy22, you are right. I wish the Western countries had acted according to that philosophy instead of colonizing most of the world. But it's never too late to settle the debt. The rich countries should pay back what they stole for so many centuries.

[MrSampy22]

If you want money, do something to generate it yourself. Quit trying to get someone else to give it to you for nothing.

1411pap: Yes, I wish that people like Evo Morales governed our earth!
