It is almost impossible to hold off bullying multinationals who have set up shops in developing countries like Brazil, India, Malaysia,...The local industries, farmers are sqeezed on one hand by the money power of these MNC's and a hapless Government on the other side. Over the years since India 'Liberalised', the small towns and villages have had a raw deal loosing out on so called development, increase in umemployment and no support on improving civic amenities

Welcome,
I agree, capitalism is a disease that will spread uncheaked and we must give a diagnosis to the world. Have you read any Marx? Well, if you have, you would know that we must edducate the working class so that we may rise in revolution to establish communism that will wither away toward anarchism. We must not allow these corporatists to rule our lives and steal our labor. What are your ideas?

In Angola, the rape by Portugal was so bad that in a country with vast oil resources, only multinationals are able to afford to drill the oil and mine the diamonds. It is estimated that Angola could produce many times more barrells of oil per day if it could afford the right technology and gear. Unfortunately, capitalism is preventing it accessing such technology.

This story is repeated throughout the Third World. Just replace the name of the country and the name of the natural resource.
