Do not laugh too quickly on the ricans ... I saw a report on a French SME which was established in Dubai to do the same thing ...

As for the concept there is more to say: it is one more toy for the wealthy who no longer know what to do with their $$$ ... while 2 Billion humans there is barely enough to eat. .. :|

Hello

There are more and more poor people,
less wealthy means, but some very wealthy and living in a bubble.
However the democratic system does not allow tax to become richer than the government ...

Lau ... if you think that it penalizes the ultra rich ... the ISF is especially made to tax the rich means cited by André ...

André for your 3 P I do not agree ... since power and politics are almost synonymous ... on the other hand I hesitated to put SEX but it was a bit off topic.

I do not entirely agree with this statement: in my opinion, politics is one of the means of gaining power, but it is not necessarily the only one (nor necessarily the most effective).

Nowadays, in this world where the pogon - initially invented to help man in his exchanges - has become the master of the planet and of humanity, the multinationals are becoming more and more powerful and their power far exceeds that of some states. Just look at laws like the CPE or even certain aspects of the European constitution that has been presented to us: politicians are becoming more and more servants of multinationals and their role is to pass laws to facilitate the job of corporate control over all aspects of our lives : Evil: .

Demonstration by example: in your opinion, between the President of Luxembourg and that of EADS for example, which one has the most power?
