You Don't Know What You're Talking About Simon Anholt

Are you kidding?

  • Do you know that oligarch "businessmen" that loot from resource-rich countries like Russia and African countries hide their loot in apartments in London? Who lets that happen?
  • Do you know it's companies like Standard Chartered that loot African countries to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars in late payment charges and re-structuring charges for their loans?
  • Do you know that Shell is a conduit for the corrupt oil that flows out of Africa enriching the oligarch despots and keeping the rest of the country in poverty? (Netherlands)
  • Do you know that the top 15 container ships account for more pollution than all the passenger cars in the world combined and that 10 of them are owned by Maersk? (Denmark)
  • Do you know that most of the corrupt despots keep their money in Swiss banks?
