The Interview is in German, but there are English subtitles. I thought I would post it so people can analyze the "logic" in such peoples minds. He's a bit weird. :pinocchio:
One can analyze this bullshit forever, lie by lie, fallacy by fallacy. Enjoy.

Nestlé-Konzernchef Peter Brabeck: "Zugang zu Wasser sollte kein öffentliches Recht sein."

Wow. Maybe access to air should also be restricted. Imagine the profit you will get from charging air.

Reminds me of a poem:

We are living for free;
Air is free, clouds are free;
Brooks and hills are free;
Rain and mud are free;
Outside of cars,
Doors of movie theaters,
Shop displays are free;
Not cheese or bread but
Sour water is free;
Freedom costs your head,
Slavery is free;
We are living for free.

My two cents, fwiw.
 
I believe it was the documentary Flow that pretty well demonstrated what that company has been up to with water. I'm not sure whether I would want to look closely at this particular person's "pathologic." After a while it all starts to look the same. Is there something different here?
 
Dear God...

According to this whacko:

- Not a single case of illness due to GMO's after 15 years of consumption
- We have never been as healthy (population)
- Water shouldn't be a public right but a merchandise
- His business is in a position to help finding solution to the world's problems

There is absolutely no logic there if you ask me. And he's not just "a bit weird" to my eyes but rather a manipulative and lying psychopath.

My thoughts. I could be wrong.

Peace.
 
"A human being should have a right to water... that's an extreme solution".

I've heard enough, same old BS.

Though he is perfectly right, from his standpoint. It is an extreme solution seen from the psychopathic view point of survival of the fittest. May he enjoy many lifetimes of subservience to the STS hierarchy, while we work towards a different goal.

Unfortunately there is a current infestation of this prior thinking.

:rotfl:

Yeah you can thank Ayn Rand for that type of thinking. Even though I do superficially agree that you can't have the right to violate someone else's rights (people who are against universal healthcare, for example, say that saying health as a right means you have the right to force doctors at gunpoint to treat you, or otherwise rob others via taxes in order to pay doctors to treat you, etc.). But honestly, in a normal, natural world we wouldn't be discussing who has the right to take water from the river to quench their first. It's only in a pathological civilization where we have to take the Hobbesian "brutish and short" interpretation of life, and start making rules where people "have" to behave in certain ways, or face the tyrant's wrath. Normal human empathy and wisdom is more than enough to sort out so much of the nonsense schizoidal and authoritarian types mistake for philosophy or legitimate debate.
 
I watched the documentary 'The corporation' a couple of times.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0379225/

And according to the makers of the documentary commercial water companies went into Bolivia and started charging the people for rain water, even the water that was collected in buckets! Huge riots broke out and people died or were seriously injured. The Bolivian people did win in the end (police and the army eventually withdrew and didn't show themselves anymore).

Also, they featured the Fraser Institute that was interested in trading clean air and so on. The institute claimed that if clean air did not belong to the commons, but instead it was commercialised people would take better care of it (paraphrasing here).

Well, that rings a bell. CEO's, "Consortium Egocentric Oppressors".

That company in Bolivia was Bechtel. They have a long history around water issues, particularly the damning of it. In Bolivia's case, even the rain above.

Bought the film years ago and thought it was well done.
 
Re: Nestle CEO Peter Brabeck: "Access to water shouldn't be a public right."

Interesting, if that is what was said.

'A public' doesn't consume water, individuals do. And individuals who accept the responsibility to live, need water and consume water to do so and without needing or asking anyone's permission.

As far as I'm concerned, anyone who expresses a desire to harm others, (forcibly prevent them from obtaining water without paying for it in this case) while describing their desire to do so in abstract, non-personal terms reveals their pathology.

I so wish the general run of humanity could see that and then act accordingly to expose another 'cancer' in the 'body public'.

Hi "salina", the above post didn't add any helpful or insightful information to this thread, so it's actually noise. It would be appreciated if you not post noise. If everyone on the forum posted every time they had an emotional reaction, we'd hardly be able to keep track of the signal at all through all the noise. Thanks.

The minute after I posted it, I new it was noise but I wasn't sure I could just delete it so I left it. Please accept my apology.
 
a bit more about this

_https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Brabeck-Letmathe
Humanitarianism

Brabeck-Letmathe (credited as Peter Brabeck) appeared in the 2005 documentary We Feed The World in an interview at the end of the film. He said that the idea of water as a basic human right was "extreme" and that he believed water should have value like any foodstuff. He also affirmed that Nestlé was part of the solution to world poverty by employing so many people.[4]

During his tenure as CEO he garnered a "Black Planet Award" in 2007, along with Liliane Bettencourt, from the Foundation for Ethics and Economics in Berlin. It is bestowed on individuals dedicated to the destruction of the planet, whereas Brabeck and Bettencourt through Nestle were accused of proliferating contaminated baby food, monopolising water resources, and tolerating child labor.[5]
