An Evaluation of the Devaluation
A Minister of Finance is morally right to lie about a forthcoming devaluation and a woman has the right to lie about her age. This is the common wisdom.
Rumours about a devaluation of the Macedonian Denar versus the major currencies were in the air during the last few weeks. Still, no government official had to lie. The market just did not believe it. The unofficial exchange rate stayed put at 27 MKD to the Deutschmark even as the devaluation was taking place.
This is strange. Dev ...

Only a hundred years or so ago from the sweat shops of the Industrial Revolution to the cotton fields of the USA we relied on human misery to produce goods at cheap prices and to dump those goods on countries around the globe. Do you think they will have any second thoughts about repaying the favour?
China with its sweat shops has no other option at the moment than to let its huge population and cheap labour give it a foothold in the world economy. There is no way they will pay their wo ...

Competition Laws
A. THE PHILOSOPHY OF COMPETITION

Dog Stew
Food is a substance that holds cultures together. Common foods unify and define countries and regions. However, a food that one group considers a delicacy, another group may find offensive. The French have long been called "frogs" because of their taste for the amphibians. The English once were sneered upon as "beefsteak" because of their trend-setting use of cattle, and in the Philippines at least one tribe is nicknamed "dogeaters."
The name Dogeaters has not been confined to the Phili ...

Eleven Things You Must Know About A Drop Shipping Directory And It's Company

Employment is sharply up in a host of countries with liberalized labour markets - Britain, Spain, Ireland, Finland. The ECB brags that employment in the euro zo ...

Europe's New Jews
They inhabit self-imposed ghettoes, subject to derision and worse, the perennial targets of far-right thugs and populist politicians of all persuasions. They are mostly confined to menial jobs. They are accused of spreading crime, terrorism and disease, of being backward and violent, of refusing to fit in.
Their religion, atavistic and rigid, insists on ritual slaughter and male circumcision. They rarely mingle socially or inter-marry. Most of them - though born in European countries - ...
