How China Became So Powerful

- It's a story of a certain type of capitalism
If you want to learn more, check out this article from the WEF bit.ly/39s92kl or for a deeper dive, the full book was published yesterday (I've read it. it's good!): amzn.to/3ordkwC
This video is a story about China, past to present. But in telling the story of the Rise of China (and Asia generally), it's impossible to not talk about fundamental lessons that have emerged. In this video I try to tell the story but then also look back and at the result of it all. To examine the data and see what effects our global economic system has had on people and the planet. The data is clear that our model of capitalism has some major winners. But it also produces some important losers, those who have lost out or have been damaged by these trends. One major loser of the this system is the future generations of people who will live on a planet with more extreme and volatile weather and ocean patterns. All of this calls for a rethinking of our capitalism. Not to scrap it all together, but to upgrade it to a version that benefits all of society and doesn't threaten our planet and future generations.
Thanks for watching.

The Chinese sure know something about education campaigns.

@@homosapien3034 China's re-educating a small group of Muslims who are extremists (any ordinary Chinese would call them terrorists but I do respect that the western media give them names like "human rights activists"). That small group of extremists have caused trouble in the XinJiang region in the past decade, who basically whip out knives to slaughter people that don't believe in their version of the religion. As a person who don't believe in their version of the religion (like the majority of the Chinese population and even the majority of the Chinese Muslims who believe in other versions of the religion), I don't see anything wrong with re-educating them to not kill other people. Also, as a female myself, I think it is important for all women to realize that they are not born to be belongings/offspring-production machines for men, and I don't find anything wrong with the Chinese government educating those women about this.
somehow I don't think that Walmart, Davos, and corporate social responsibility is going to be the vanguard of a clean and equitable society ....
Well I for one am shocked to hear that. Shocked I say! 😂
I''m glad there was already criticism on this video before Tom Nicholas's video about it came out (about its sponsor and the way this video misinforms)
@El Dimos Karam Sorry but nope. Corporations just buy up the regulators, and - to be extra safe - donate to both political parties. That way whichever party wins (and is in charge of legislating over regulation) they get to control the regulatipn process.
Its called regulatory capture.
@@somecuriosities That's not always how it plays out. America isn't the world.
Advertise long enough, every Liberal will think all those corporations are for social responsibility.
Regarding your chart on China"s increase in CO2 emissions, this is not entirely due to the Chinese population. When the industrialized West moved its production and factories to China, it also moved the energy requirements, CO2 emissions, industrial waste and other industrial pollutions. So these China increases in CO2 emissions is really the result of moving factories from one country to another.
and due to China's highest efficiency in industrial production, the whole world's CO2 emissions even became less than move the productions back to Western countries.
如果按照人均二氧化碳排放量计算，中国人均甚至是美国的三分之一
it's not because of the Chinese population at all, it's lack of regulations from the Chinese government. But if they do put stricter regulations, it would be less appealing for companies to build factories, resulting in a loss for China
@@iBacon已经非常严格了，一个中等工厂需要检测的项目达到了几乎50项。很多工厂对这些检测恨得牙痒。但没有任何办法。
@@iBacon Your statement is based on the long-standing propaganda from the media. However, the reality is not as you described.
Firstly, China is known as the world's factory, with products exported globally. This means that China is shouldering the emissions that would have been dispersed among factories around the world.
Secondly, during the 1990s, China was in a phase of rapid development, and at that time, not only China but the entire world did not pay enough attention to environmental issues.
However, because hosting the 2008 Olympic Games was an important opportunity for China to showcase its image to the world, China began to place more emphasis on environmental protection, starting around 2008. It then introduced a "sustainable development strategy" and placed increasing importance on environmental protection, with strict enforcement requirements.
Although there has been a process of adjustment, China has been making efforts. Ten years ago, when new leaders took office, they placed even greater emphasis on environmental protection than their predecessors.
The simplest example is that China has added forest area through afforestation that exceeds the size of a country like Belgium. Additionally, China has made significant progress in desert control.
Clearly, these achievements cannot appear immediately after the strengthening of environmental protection policies. On the contrary, these "results" you see now are evidence of China's early emphasis on environmental protection.
In conclusion, it is not your fault to hold biases against China. You have simply been blinded by the media. If you have the opportunity, you are welcome to come to China and see for yourself, to experience it firsthand.
As a pure Chinese, this video literally made me vomit, completely immersed in the self-righteous Western worldview full of prejudice and prejudice😅

mans talking about social corporate responsibility and less about economic policies leading to china's boom
Yeah this should really have a different title.
He is literally NOT talking about China at all.
What's interesting to me is that he doesn't discuss the total absence of private land ownership in China, the communal nature of all agricultural land, or the dominance of SOEs in their economy. Also no discussion of the specific state programs that have been utilised to directly lift these predominately rural communities located in-land out of poverty, or the involvement of some 90 million people from the CPC. He instead attributes these achievements to a vaguely defined "shareholder capitalism". Moreover, he also dismisses the communist economic system out of hand with no explanation or justification. Also a bit misleading to use the percentile graph to portray the lowest income groups as "winners". 75% growth in a $1 a day income is just $1.75. That's incomparable with 300% of the several billion dollars held by 1%ers.
The truth of the matter is that the vast majority of all the wealth produced in the past 30 years has been stolen from the world's workers, the people that actually produced it. Their labour produces all this surplus value and it has been siphoned by the 1%. This video is a thinly veiled propaganda piece for the "merits" of capitalism by attributing the state achievements of a socialist country to a global mode of production that doesn't function in China in any way like it does in the west.
China's economic reform which made the boom was basically that the government stopped planning and let the free market run 😂 If you live in a western country, you already have that.
He just needed something to talk about untill the ad. Such a sell out video.
I read the book that he promoted. It advocates for cooperations getting to directly make decisions about international politics instead of nation states. That seems pretty negative. Ngl.

This video has so much but SO MUCH incomplete or outright false information.
It's unfair to just compare the gross CO2 emission. China has 1.4 billion people. You need to show CO2 emission per capita.
I think within the context of the video, using gross CO2 emissions is logical. The growth rate of China's CO2 emissions highlights their economic strength and growth owing to capitalism. As well as the subsequent dangers that ensue from Friedman's economic thinking. But you are right. Lifestyle and factors other than just production play a role in CO2 emissions. China cannot be held entirely accountable for global emissions.

Yea this was really terrible. It really neglects to show how much damage Western powers caused to China. It also gives was too much credit to capitalism for China's rise. China was already growing fast by the time it started capitalistic reforms. And those reforms never went as far as the West but despite that it still has a faster growing economy than the West.
It was a sponsored video to make WEF look better
Yeah I was expecting to at least hear about technology transfer centres
A lot of video miss the point that CPC view themselves as enterprise with social responsibility. Wall Street do not want that responsibility but want the government control for their own interest.

The Mao era was not completely meaningless. It had an industrial base and laid the foundation for future development. There is a story in China, when you are hungry, you eat a cake, but you still feel hungry, when you eat the third cake, you already feel full, but you can not say that the first cake is not effective
well said❤
Mao strengthened China to allow it to engage the west on China's terms and not be some pseudo colony like Japan/South Korea...

John, this is 20 minutes videos, y'all have so much to say but then guys produce a full comprehensive study on capitalism with china at the centre and see how easy it is to cram 50 years of global imperialism into it. So much mouth , tsk tsk tsk
@@PHlophe easier then what your tiny brain can imagine, in simple form:
China needs to fight imperialism --> the then government (ROC under NPC's rule) unable and unwilling to --> CCP took over China due to increasing popularity, which is because of their anti-imperialism stance --> CCP took up Soviet-style socialism which is obviously anti-imperialist, first worked well but then famine and cultural revolution just happened --> CCP leaders knowing that they need to build up capital for China, so adopted 'Socialism with Chinese characteristics', aka combining socialism with regulated market economy, still being anti-imperialist, leading to the boom of Chinese economy and power --> Today, CCP has obtained significant support from the Chinese people, while having the power to fight against the imperialistic USA
@@PHlophe and so to say the least, China is in NO means capitalist, although not really full socilaist but it is quite vastly different than pure capitalism, which allows it to be free of western imperialistic wraith, hence keeping most of its crucial power to Chinese people instead of western imperialists and capitalists

Capitalism is good actually. It is the only system that works and creates wealth and prosperity. Socialism has brought nothing, but poverty, totalitarianism and consequential social regression (liberal democracies such as Sweden or New Zealand are much more feminist and pro-LGBT than Cuba or North Korea). It is painfully clear that communism failed and failed miserably, under Mao China was plagued by constant food shortages and repressions, under Deng, which liberalized the economy and turned it into a market-based system, China has finally started to grow and the constant famines and food-shortages stopped. Ask any economics professor and they'll tell you that communism just does not work and that its track record is nothing but failures. And just a simple question for you to end my comment: where would you like to live in a social-democratic state of Sweden or a Marxist-Leninist state of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea?

I am a Chinese. In terms of carbon emissions, China is indeed the country with the highest carbon emissions, which is mainly related to China's large population, growing industry and automobile emissions. The most important thing is that China still finds China and needs emissions for development. But when it comes to per capita carbon emissions, China is the seventh
I heard that all that Carbon emissions were mainly from factories and coals from house hold, since coal is the cheapest form of heat during the winter seasons, but it is surprising that they use so much of it and still have tons and tons of it. Regardless I think China have unlimited potential because of the people. The backbone of any nation are the smart people who works on building the country, which is why USA was strong because it rely heavily on H1B visa, but that seems to be fading since many of them left and some decided not to come but instead stay in their country to help it grow. India's Silicon valley is hot right now along with China's silicon valley and now even South Korea and Japan's silicon valley but soon other Asian countries will play a huge role too, especially since there are so many chinese from mainland looking to invest in all of Asia like Cambodia, North Korea, Indonesia, Philiipines, Vietnam and I believe thailand too?Not sure about that one, but China is like the mass cleaning crew where they are establishing a relationship with so many nations.

@@altobarn9595 The world's response to conserving endangered species is a joke to begin with. We should be crying for every million spent on pandas, and other cute, but ecologically useless & hard to save animals.
I looked at the same website where he got that CO2 emission chart from. Not only the US has the twice amount of CO2 emission per capita than China, Australia, Canada and few other countries also have double the amount of emissions. What shocked me the most is Mongolia, how can they have like 3 times of China’s emission per capita. What happened to them, it increased rapidly just in recent few years, lol.
Crazy how I literally knew that the U.S. has the largest historical emissions but I didn't blink twice when he said "China: the world's largest emitter" 🤦🏽♂️
Of course their per capita is lower, they have over a billion people, half of which is still extremely poor and a quarter, roughly a little less than the entire US population live below the poverty line. As the CCP continue to build coal plants and these people gain electricity and wealth their per capita will rise sharply. And they should become a wealthy country, but as that happens their emissions will only go up and the planet will continue to get worse. Hopefully they switch to nuclear or nat gas or renewable but we'll see. India will go through something similar as well. Its a really complicated issue.

Just discovered you Mr Harris. Your presentation to regular folk like me is so fucking good. In four days I've digested 10 of your videos. Love you bro.
I just think it's weird how China's successes are "because of capitalism" and their failures are "because of communism." The industrialization that led to disastrous effects in the earlier modern history of the USSR or China also led to disastrous effects in the US and Europe when it was first implemented. The fall of communism practically destroyed Russia while the retention of communism propelled China. I'm not even saying this as an advocate of China's policies. It's just like the Western media has to try its hardest to avoid the obvious: China's economic plan worked.
yeah exactly
Because the whole rise of China economically started with the phrase "Let some people be rich first". Infusion of capitalism into communism while retaining the state control is the primary reason behind China's rise.
Communist control that threw away communist economics since Marx's Historical materialism only focuses on economics.
@@LoyaltL thats not really correct major oversimplification. Chinas markedly less capitalist than the west, and though it uses markets and private enterprise its very different from western, laizze faire "milton Friedman" style capitalism

Nice video. But as a Chinese who lives in EU, I'd say you missed one key point that China has a large population.
And consider to carbon dioxide emissions per capita, US has 16.1 tons, which is much higher than China which has only 7.2.
I was thinking the same. I am usually neutral on such western eastern stuff, but hey Americans are seriously wasting a lot more energy, producing a lot more co2 and general waste than anywhere else.
@@2humans1dog whities right
@@2humans1dog American, can confirm. Idiots brag about how America has so much and yet forget how much they waste and dump into the environment in their excess. At any rate, you aren't going to see the same ability (or inclination) to reduce corporate emissions in America, as you see in China. That's just a fact. Whether the state choose to is another story.
Eh, I don't really see that contextualization as changing much. No matter how you look at it, both countries need to get their CO2 emissions down and generally be more environmentally sustainable, and it is totally unimportant who has the technically worse emissions
Does a large population change the fact a country, whose policies dictate everything, emits a certain amount of C02? Your metric is irrelevant to the problem.

Many new countries after colonisation are no economic independent, still played by colonial countries
China would naturally emit the most co2 as it has the highest population and also the world’s factory so that everyone on earth can enjoy their products. Despite this, comparing per capita, it’s still way lower than the US.
Greta Thunberg: But who cares
well, the US just want the products but not the co2
This is a problem that any developing countries must face in the process of development. Just like the previous industrial revolution, the United States and the United Kingdom also emitted more CO2 before. China is at this stage.
But Chinese government also promised to achieve carbon neutrality by 2030，it just takes time
@The running man We started to close some polluting factories a few years ago, and we have been promoting new energy vehicles in recent years. Most importantly, we are promoting clean energy such as wind and solar power in some western regions. This is a big help in reducing greenhouse gas emissions from thermal power. There are other policies, too. So it's really just a matter of time before we go carbon neutral

4:01 is a picture taken in the Republic of China between 1912 to 1949 and 4:03 is from the 1930s also in the Republic of China, not from the 70’s like you’re falsely claiming to your ignorant audience. Suffering was magnified by present US ally Japan who to this day denies their disgusting war crimes
a part 2 to this vid with what's going on today would be interesting.
If you do a same graph chart between industry revolution 1760 and before the rise of china1980，place relieved the most co2 would have the fastest economic growth rate, just like your current graph. The one increasing the industry output will increase their growth rate, and vice versa. The ownership of the most economic output will be the most richest. The graph charts would be the same. The model never changes. The difference are the location and the ownership
I love how this comment section is being critical of the video, not just swallowing the information

Capitalism is good actually. It is the only system that works and creates wealth and prosperity. Socialism has brought nothing, but poverty, totalitarianism and consequential social regression (liberal democracies such as Sweden or New Zealand are much more feminist and pro-LGBT than Cuba or North Korea). It is painfully clear that communism failed and failed miserably, under Mao China was plagued by constant food shortages and repressions, under Deng, which liberalized the economy and turned it into a market-based system, China has finally started to grow and the constant famines and food-shortages stopped. Ask any economics professor and they'll tell you that communism just does not work and that its track record is nothing but failures. And just a simple question for you to end my comment: where would you like to live in a social-democratic state of Sweden or a Marxist-Leninist state of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea?

Stakeholder capitalism sounds nice but companies that "adopt" it usually just do it for PR reasons and nothing else. Capitalism from its most basic nature CAN NOT prioritize anything but profit for any amount of time

Taxation is theft.
I dare he has that ball.
China has 1.4billion people, US has only 350million people around , Europe’s population is also 350million around. Therefore, comparing China’s CO2 emissions directly to that of US and Europe is not fair.
The historical narrative often portrays China as a dominant force in various realms, including culture, economics, and technology. However, for much of the past 200 years, China closed itself off from the world, particularly during the Qing Dynasty, which led to its stagnation as Western nations advanced culturally and technologically. Today, China is re-emerging as a global power, reclaiming a position it has held for thousands of years. Therefore, a more apt topic might be: "How China Reclaimed its Position as a Leading Global Power."
Yeah! It had nothing to do with the Century of Humiliation and China being enslaved by colonial powers like the USA! Just look at the Roosevelt family’s involvement in the Opium Wars!
"If they fail, they bear the cost" see, that's never been a reality. At least not for those with (financial / economical / political) power.
If they fail, we bear the cost. Just check 2008 and 2020, these "too big to fail" businesses keep getting bailouts for their corporate screwups.
In Milton's vision. There is no collusion of government with businesses. So yeah if a business fails, they bear the cost. There is no bailout or political assistance in a nation that truly separates its economy from politics. Just as we in the past realized that religion is to be separate from politics.

propaganda paid for by the world economic forum.
The second graph is misleading since China has a population that is 5x of the US. Every developed country went through the phase that the economy growth consumes the environment. China and other Asian countries are experiencing that process and they were much more considerate comparing to western countries while they were at the same stage.
Very good point. That graph should reflect population differences to be fair.
Also America and Europe are like 4x and 3x China's emissions when it comes to historical emissions (that total amount of CO2 that a country has emitted in its entire history)
@@skazka3789 great so lets allow every country to pollute as much as America and Europe did, I bet that helps the environment. Its only fair, right?
@@Quell__ No one's saying that. But it does give some perspective - when you consider that China has consistently had 4x the population of America. It also shows that developing countries in the modern era face the restraints of climate change - while there were no obstacles to America/Europe's industrialisation as the science of climate change wasn't out yet when they industrialised.
@@Quell__ Thant’s why exchange and mutual respect is the key, from both side, people from both side need to understand in order to avoid conflicting. For me personally carbon emission is some kind of “rules” which is in favor of the industrialized countries if you think from emerging country’s perspective. Any better ideas how to encounter that? I would propose to trace the end user of those emitted CO2. Which means all CO2 a country produced but eventually turned into goods that are actually consumed by other countries, should be counted into that end users of that country. Such as China for consumer goods or the Netherlands for agricultural products . I am looking forward for other good ideas? :)

@@TheManinBlack9054 That doesn't matter. Whether or not capitalism is the correct system is irrelevant to the critique people are making here.

If he were making a video about how capitalism is great and it wasn't sponsored by the World Economic Forum then I would have less of a problem with it. The fact that it was made in partnership with an organization that has vested interests in keeping capitalism around, it's hard to take his opinion seriously, even if it is the correct opinion.
we can tell you didn't read Mao bro. Mao literally wrote about allowing capitalist to build up industry in china, and once china is sufficiently industrialized the state would then seize the means of production. The capitalist reforms in china also only apply to special economic zones where foreign capital is allowed to enter the chinese market. Outside of those special economic zones are businesses which are either state owned or worker co-ops where living standards and wages are significantly higher.
Your videos give me information no other content creator does
Ngl weird the sponsorship wasn’t mentioned till the end. I didn’t even see that part the first time I watched this. There should be RUclips’s sponsorship overlay somewhere here.

This is absolutely an ad, it tries to paint Walmart, JP Morgan, and Apple as socially and environmentally conscious businesses when they aren't. Probably the worst examples:
Walmart paying low wages so that employees only continue to shop at Walmart, while the Walton Family is one of the richest families on the planet.
Apple restricting or refusing third-party repair because it will mean people are less inclined to buy new devices if their old devices continue to function with a low-cost repair.
JP Morgan, one of the largest financial institutions that took part in causing the 2008 crash,
it’s telling that this video didn’t have the “sponsored content” badge at the beginning

@@TheManinBlack9054 it seems like you don't understand the difference between capitalism and socialism. Let me give you a little introduction.
Marx analyzed how capitalism produces commodities and found that the people who actually create value are poorly treated and ripped off. He said capitalism is good at generating wealth but distributes it highly inequality. Socialism is the solution to that distribution problem.
Socialism simply says that workers should democratically own thier workplaces and thus you won't have someone in the middle taking all the profits that everyone helped to produced. The profits will be evenly distributed and you won't have a few people in society with all the power.
@@TheManinBlack9054 And here we are in the middle of a global pandemic and waiting for the end of the world thanks to global warming. Hurray Capitalism!
@El Dimos Karam The people that innovate are still doing labor, they're not considered capitalist so they would still exist under a socialist system. I'd argue that they'd actually be more rewarded because then they would own that technology they created instead of some employer.
Fantastic video! I just showed it to my 8th grade history class after we wrapped up a unit on the Cultural Revolution. I wanted to leave the students with an idea of how China rapidly changed from the 70s to today, and this was perfect. Led to an excellent discussion too!
I'm 3rd generation Malaysian Chinese. U could see around the world, most of their "richest man" is Chinese. Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, Thailand, Philippines and etc… this is due to our Chinese style education, our culture and attitude.

It's funny how, in the USA, "socialism" seems to be a kind of taboo word, so much so that any policy that takes care of people is automatically labelled as such and considered "socialism" and hence "bad". At least, that's my feeling from Europe, I might have got the wrong impression, correct me if I'm wrong :)
You're not wrong. People here have a gross misunderstanding of what socialism is after having anti-soviet propaganda injected into our veins during the cold war. That red scare mentality has cemented itself in our culture for decades, all the while corporations have defanged and all but eliminated our labor unions and the media has become corporatized. I don't think there is any possible good ending for the path this country is going down.
Having lived in the US, I can tell you these idiots don't understand what socialism is meanwhile the rich are constantly getting bailed out and actually benefiting from socialist relief while so many of these poor morons stay on the bottom eating shit with no chance of upward mobility
@@benlacle1057 interesting. The hedge fund that was in trouble over GameStop shares was bailed out by other hedge funds. But they trade freely as the free market should work. Are they hypercritical or smart? They say the only place socialism works is in the family. I'd like to understand your views.
@@AlexsaurusRex What I'm mostly referencing is the wall street bailout in 2008. These people knowingly exploited many vulnerable people and screwed them over and got out scott-free. In my opinion, you need a balance of both ideologies where you don't allow for exploitation and also try and help those in need, in addition the way financial aid works with such high interest rates is so incredibly gross to me especially compared to European countries where the cost of college is significantly lower and it feels like education is a right and not a privilege only for those who can afford it. People misconstrue Socialism and use it as this boogeyman meanwhile in my view a lot of the people that hold that idiotic view are the ones being crushed by unchecked capitalism.
No, you are absolutely correct. Further, the right drums this word in the US to incite fear for any long term policies that might actually help the people. By hyping the fear, the less educated share of the popularion votes against their best interests.

Your videos were not pure click baits but this one felt like you hooked the audience and then did not talk enough about China and its economy / money / growth.

The fact of the matter is, stakeholder capitalism is certainly not socialism. those who use the term make sure to make that distinction. They support free markets, private industry, and liberal democracy. They simply believe that private industries should look at people's needs a bit more.
Socialism on the other hand, according to Marx, Engels, Lenin, etc, wishes for the working class to stage revolution against capitalism. So that after this revolution they may instate a dictatorship of the proletariat, which is a form of governance in which the interests of the working class are furthered against the interests of private industry. The abolition of the market, of private property, and liberal democracy (they favor a socialist republic model) is the end goal.
As you can see, they are very different things! And both the learned supporters of stakeholder capitalism, the people who Invented the term in the first place, and socialists agree that they are distinct ideas!
Thank you for paying attention freind!
Capitalism is good actually. It is the only system that works and creates wealth and prosperity. Socialism has brought nothing, but poverty, totalitarianism and consequential social regression (liberal democracies such as Sweden or New Zealand are much more feminist and pro-LGBT than Cuba or North Korea). It is painfully clear that communism failed and failed miserably, under Mao China was plagued by constant food shortages and repressions, under Deng, which liberalized the economy and turned it into a market-based system, China has finally started to grow and the constant famines and food-shortages stopped. Ask any economics professor and they'll tell you that communism just does not work and that its track record is nothing but failures. And just a simple question for you to end my comment: where would you like to live in a social-democratic state of Sweden or a Marxist-Leninist state of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea?

@@oracle8192 dear friend, there was a smiley face in my comment. i'm familiar with the term 'stakeholder capitalism'. unfortunately this comment section doesn't seem to allow links but in a previous attempt to answer your comment i linked to a thought slime video on the subject of the great reset.
@@TheManinBlack9054 did you know that you can get paid and sponsored for making these comments? i asked economics professor richard wolf, he kinda said it might work.
13:34 Blockchain technology (ie open, encrypted, trustless, distributed ledger) can and should help with this movement. I am referring to DePin specifically... decentralized physical infrastructure... like what is being attempted by Helium, Hivemapper (though I think Tesla could just do all the mapping as they put cars on the road), etc. This is a way that profits can be disseminated to everyone equally. Also, the tokenization of real estate so that anyone, regardless of income level... can have the same opportunity to make money off of their investment...
Is it true this video was made in partnership with WEF?
Maybe this is a bit too optimistic about billionaires doing good things...
it's what americans are educated to believe in, and how america explains the world to others
bro wake up
Schemel, you use the word " bro" ? Chile , SMH !
Exactly. I do not think this idea will work. History has proved that human are greedy. On the other hand, human fear power thus law, regulation or maybe revolution are the solution.
If you really think about it, they are doing more good things than bad. Look at how the world is advancing in terms of technology and ingenuity. The problem is when corporations and the government do each other favors to maintain power and money.
