Charity for profit ...Corrupt Africans......McDonalds to save the world

A few little bits from The Irishmans Diary yesterday in the times........Surely this sort of bias should be wielded in a less free manner?

"Firstly, advanced free enterprise economies are clean economies. Compare Sweden or theUS with China or India. Secondly , does it matter if someone makes money out of charity? Isn't paying for the best usually worth it in our own lives?"


"Coca-Cola and McDonalds. Both companies are willing to get involved in aid projects in the developing world; and they have been met with indignation, derision and scorn by the sandalistas in Jo'burg"

"Marxism is now dead; of course......:"

"African villages live in semi-permanent drought because successive African governments have chosen to spend their money on guns and girls, not wells and water"
