It is very interesting to see how GE has benefitted from the US's war on terror. 90 percent of GE's nuclear power plants could discharge radiation into the atmosphere. It is responsible for polluting 78 Superfund sites, and is pushing the government to overturn Superfund legislation. Fraud and poor safety for workers are also issues. Why don't we see this on the ecomagination commercials?

  Mark Skousen uses a Searcher approach to solving poverty. Instead of useless charitable donations, he proposes breaking the World Bank down into self employed institutions. Individuals borrow money with specified limits. If the borrower defaults, then he must be reducated in the borrowing process and repayment process. The only negative aspect about this is that these lending agents act like a Cash-n-Go and the interest is very high at over 18%.
