Remember what trust did to crash individual workers and merchants

These days, only multi nation companies (MNCs) own the global market. Sometimes, they own different brand companies under their business. For instance, GAP owns Old Navy. So, a shopping mall might have hundreds of stores inside yet the owners are only few because this ownership by the MNCs. It is not only for the merchandises but also the information available for the public.

A rather bizarre article in The Economist today addresses this power structure and far from dismissing it as a conspiracy theory, simply reaffirms the fact that “the cosmopolitan elite” do indeed “flock together” at such gatherings and elusive clubs to shape the world that the “superclass” wishes to inhabit.

Of course, The Economist is a perfect avenue for the open conspiracy to be flaunted, given that its editor is a regular attendee at the annual Bilderberg conference, an admission the piece proudly discloses in its opening paragraphs.

What made me concerned is that information also is treated as its brand names. People prefer to wear famous brand clothes and jewelries. This phenomenon treats the manual craftsmanship in another category of choice such as "hand made" crafts. Some street vendors and the souvenir stores sell these things and they are usually not a part of a famous and expensive brands. Only the ones supported by the MNCs gain the resources and reputations to become a successful brand. This is much like the music bands that start from Indies scenes and later get popular on TV or CD sales by joining the MNCs.

What will happen when the world economy goes to bankrupt because of the insider trading and gigantic spending on the defense sector for the prevention of terrorism? I think the large companies would be no use as they will lose the budget to hire enough people to create goods. When people have no money like in the Third World, the companies cannot sell goods to make profits. Musicians and writers now have the opportunity for the free trade via the Internet. Also, many craftsmen sell their products by opening online stores. The bad thing is that the Internet is owned by the DOD. Obama might be able to get the right for the Internet Kill Switch to terminate any communication via the Internet.

Guess what? Not only information but the right for the trading through the Internet is already taken from the
individuals. When it was about trust taking the profits of the local small shops by their efficient resource management and large scale trades, the local shop owners had the right to stop it in their area by supporting the union. How about for the online businesses and the information? These categories are also under the control of the larege MNCs and the Military Industrial Complex. When all the profits go to the MNCs and the government, the people cannot gain from their works and the competition. There should be some regulation to support the individual and small scale business including the information to the goods even for the Internet.
