“Water is, of course, the most important raw material we have today in the world. It’s a question of whether we should privatize the normal water supply for the population. And there are two different opinions on the matter. The one opinion, which I think is extreme, is represented by the NGOs, who bang on about declaring water a public right. That means that as a human being you should have a right to water. That’s an extreme solution. The other view says that water is a foodstuff like any other, and like any other foodstuff it should have a market value. Personally, I believe it’s better to give a foodstuff a value so that we’re all aware it has its price, and then that one should take specific measures for the part of the population that has no access to this water, and there are many different possibilities there.”

What an asshole

Bottom Right sees freedom as not being told by other rulers what to do. Your own rulers get to tell you what to do obviously.

A fundamental misunderstanding of capitalism.

It’s actually just hungry hungry hippos. And hippos can eat smaller hippos
