The World Bank Helps Investors Choose the Law They Want (1/2)

1. I wonder if any two people in the conference or the comments section can agree upon a definition of social justice.

2. looks good, I will spread this information

3. What an excellent lecture (I read the transcript, this is not an audio I can let run in the background my French is not good enough) !

4. Brilliant video! Bravo! The Real News Network.

5. Thank you for this piece. Provides another view into how evil is perpetrated in the name of the "market". But to note the link to the pdf document was not provided. Please add it.

6. Very excellent speech or lecture! I''ll surely want to eventually listen to it again in full, and will now look forward to part 2, which I see was also published today, June 18th. " The International Labor Organization Today: Social Justice versus 'Total Market' (2/2) ", https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bZw2bqUEsDg. It's unfortunate that the two have completely different titles, for people coming across these when browsing my playlists won't at all realise that these go together.

8. This "law shopping " is a real big problem here in the states. Also referred to as 'the race to the bottom.' National and International corporations will 'shop' to find the state that has lowered regulations, standards, laws and taxes, the most severe then 'move ' their P.O. BOX headquarters to that state. And both political parties gleefully participate and encourage this.

9. Brilliant!

10. Interesting. Rich people get together, get paid to talk about something they never do.. labor. This is the dumbest news I've ever seen. We will see who is laboring very soon. A suit doesnt help you labor. I'm absolutly sure they dont have the proper tools for any laborious job. Keep stuffing your faces pigs. Pure fodder.

12. A good video with relevant topic for our time. I glean European ideas, from a time before the Yanks took over
    from the Fascists I think. Though Supiot is focused upon monetary and economic ambits, another European
    philosopher, Ortega y Gasset, wrote about the use of force as against 'ruling' which is liberal and civilized. Direct

    action is rooted in tribal and horde cultures, but what Oretga calls 'mass man' falls back into that state when he
    celebrates being common, and does not care for liberal institutions. The State, says Ortega, coupled with mass
    man motivated by propaganda into a faux patriotism, organized into military and police, becomes Fascism.

    There have been four world revolutions since the Renaissance: the Religious or 30 years war which resulted in
    the transfer of power to secular authority. The Monarchial Revolution unified peoples under one flag and monarch,
    creating the nation state. The Liberal Revolution of 1789, and then the Socialist Revolution of 1917. Each occurred

    about 150 years apart. Should history again follow the time pattern, we are about 50 years out from the next world
    revolution. I suspect it will occur when masses of people come to realize we are now living in the Carsonian epoch.
    Today I also saw a story on RT about population increases, anticipating about 10 billion by 2050. I suspect this
    population pressure will also focus attention upon quantity and quality of life issues. Right now US empire is a problem.

13. Oh goody

14. Thanks for the video and the book.

15. The subject is important and fascinating. But why oh why do French law professors all speak with the same monotone and long and complex sentences making it so difficult to maintain your attention? Just why??

16. THIS IS THE WORLD WAR!
    This is the most relevant post you have ever watched on YOUTUBE!
    I have been texting about the fall of free market Industrial capitalism vs rise of debt finance banking capitalism every where I commented.
    WE ARE NOT A RESOURCE!
