First question right out of the box.

If economic globalisation is inevitable, it should primarily serve humanity rather than the interests of trans-national corporations.

First it assumes globalization of the economy is inevitable, furthermore who would answer in the affirmative for trans-national coporations?

Yea screw humanity I'm all about the coporations ! :rotfl:

[Tchocky]

Answer there is that trans-national corporations inherently benefit humanity.
THe "good for GM" theory, which isn't all wrong

[AVGWarhawk]

Steve is right. I have seen this before. I wonder if I changed since that one last year sometime.

[Tchocky]

Nah, the questions haven't changed in 10-odd* years.


* = Random guess, really.

[Biggles]

Wow Steve, that's pretty cool actually.

[FIREWALL]

Your all so thick headed you don't even have the smarts to know when your being insulted.

Ha ha ha....too bad I didn't get to be right in the middle. One of my brothers claims there is no such thing as a centrist, either your left or right.

It doesn't assume because it uses the word "if".

That aside, I have had discussions with people who think that corporations
shouldn't be forced to compromise their own interests to benefit any other
interests.

It's an extreme position to take, but not one no one takes.

The compass requires questions about extreme positions in order to find
if you should be given an extreme score on the compass.
