Not to belabor the point, but here is another report of good things happening in Iraq. Allegedly, the U.S. multi-nationals are able to bask in the good news of massive resource acquisition.
At the risk of belaboring yet another point, a corporation's only purpose is to maximize profits. Are they going to make more money by investing in renewable energy technologies or invading countries rich in oil to privatize them? In fact, when they also supply the machines of war, it becomes a win-win. This is the kind of synergy that is most effective, and most sought-after. When you marry the government and the private corporate interest, people like you and me, and especially Iraqi civilians, lose.
