To govern or not to govern, that is the question.
If you answered yes then the next question is - govern what?
If you said a country - then the question becomes - what country?
Pick one - any one and its a scary portfolio out there. It seems no one is agreeing with anyone on what to govern. Here is a list of countries with no functioning government and most likely no currency to do business with -
1. Greece
2. Libya
3. Sudan
4. Afghanistan
5. Iraq
6. Egypt
7. Maldives
and so on.
What with many a coup d'etat the whole idea of a coup has lost its glamor. Everyone is just going cuckoo instead. Even the mighty Europeans are confounded with a little colletion of islands down south that threaten the very existence of a political and socioeconomic stability.
It seems borrowing is the cause of all evil. Some have done that remarkably well and decided to not pay the lender back. Hence the lenders are furious. They keep coming back with strong arm tactics like a bail bondsman but get shown a closed door. No one is at home. No government to go knock on - not even a clue. What do we do oh what do we do?
I like chocolates. Godiva Dark with Almonds - not sure of the naked woman on the horse to be the icon of some choice cocoa based products but tastes good. Started in Belgium but now owned by some Turks. Cadburys - Fruit and Nut Milk Bars - awesome combination of dried fruit pieces along with a medley of nuts makes your toungue dance - started by a Brit now owen by Kraft USA. Lindt Hazelnut spheres - made by a Swiss confectioner are divine balls that melt in your mouth with a lingering nutty taste Ghirardelli Milk Crisp Squares - crunchy and light these milk squares are easy on the palate but pack some serious calories - all good I say! Originally founded by an Italian who moved around till he landed in SF Bay today also owned by the Swiss Lindt empire.
Just a hypothetical question- is it possible for the world's population to survive by living on the coastlines and fishing for a living? If yes, we have nothing to worry about. If not, then war is inevitable.
