Thank you for the interesting read @alao. Since you have mentioned Africa and its struggle, there is a very interesting talk..almost nationalistic (but smartly put) by Mallence Bart Williams titled 'Africa exploitation by the west'. A month ago i had the chance to visit the first school of France conceptualized for training the Heads appointed to the colonies back then. They had to cover lots of artwork as murals and statues because nowadays they are found offensive to this population. I believe their system and goverment has been ruled for a long time by those who did not care enough to exploit the local context with a positive attitude. By now, it seems impossible and even luxury, to choose between fiat and proper use of goods .. at least in that part of the world where basics are an everyday struggle.
