What would happen to OPEC (Oil Producing Economic Countries) Nations should oil be taken off the market tomorrow? Are we to believe that these Nations’ economies would come crashing down? The answer is no.
Every Nation in OPEC has money ties extremely diverse as each is cautious. Now, should a Country have a stranglehold on a particular product, maybe we shouldn’t be so sensitive towards them – in the name of economy.
Take Columbia for example. Ninety percent of North American coffee drinkers drink Columbian coffee. The annual North American coffee market is roughly 1 trillion Canadian Dollars in profits alone. Columbian coffee moguls are not stupid people. Their profits are not invested back into coffee manufacturing. They invest back into their coffee manufacturing as an expense (a write off) on their income statements right next to capital expenses. Columbian coffee moguls have a diversified financial portfolio, and would not in the least be affected should North American coffee houses serve Ethiopian coffee. The markets that we see today are being controlled to protect vested interests. These vested interests are not of the companies (oligopolies) in question. The U.S and Canadian Governments, at the highest level, deal billions of dollars with these coffee moguls and OPEC, in the name of Air Bases and Political clout (you scratch my back, and I’ll scratch yours).
In Toronto, Canada I can go to 100 Grocery stores, 1000 Convenience stores, and a couple hundred pharmacies. This market is urban. In rural communities there may only be two Grocery stores and one pharmacy. In Northeast Africa there is no market, therefore, even should a person have money (people outside the top 1% income earners) there is no Grocery store to go to.
‘Laissez Faire’ (Let the market stand) deals with the economy as a competitive marketplace on the assumption that there is a market. In the Middle East, markets are established by the Bedouin (the Natives of Ishmael), in North America markets are established by Governments. When a Bedouin man journeys 50 miles to the next town, he can only bring so much, and in today’s age that means what they have brought goes to the financially elite. In Northeast Africa 1% of the population have all the money and with this money Bedouin serve them under the premise of ‘Laissez Faire’. It is disgusting that the top 1% income earners in this region do not build communities.
The unfortunate truth is that Monarchy there prevails to the point of the people being brainwashed into thinking that they’re martyrs for a cause. In North America today we combat prejudice (or the saying goes), yet, how many Ethiopian restaurants are there here? And, how many Native Americans have been elected into Public office? Governments likewise have hidden agendas.
The Cola War of the 70’s was essentially an extension of these hidden agendas’ Oil and Cola. O.P.E.C was unifying Anti-Semitism through an embargo in reference to the sale of any product worldwide to Israel. They instituted a policy that determined whom they would trade with based on a persons’ religion. Jews, Christians, Muslims, Buddhists, Hindu’s, Tao, and certain sects of Catholicism (including Druse) were to be exterminated, as defined by the Nazi Prophecy called the Fourth Reich. Pepsi Cola bought in, Coca-Cola did not. Just a reminder, the slogan used by Pepsi Cola is ‘The Next Generation’. This means that the Holocaust never ended in some peoples’ minds (to make it happen), and in this writers’ opinion, is the reason we see mass starvation in North East Africa today. Is this an exaggeration of events that we see today?
Keep in mind that World War 2 ended in the name of Treaty (still not fully understood by this writer), and that Israel is not exactly a friend to OPEC Nations. When it comes to the money that OPEC and Coffee producing nations bring in, we’re dealing with Zillions of Dollars. When we look at Columbian Coffee Companies how many also deal Cocaine? Ethiopian Coffee Moguls serving our Coffee Houses sounds like a much better alternative now, doesn’t it?
