And do you really believe that a list price should be created solely based on production costs? You’ve misunderstood completely; the production cost is only 15% of the final price. Do you think Ronaldinho gets paid just for putting on those purple shoes? And what about the taxes to maintain those high-rises? And the rent for the SANYO sign at Piccadilly Circus? And the kickbacks at customs and to the cops in various countries to avoid theft? This is the case for multinationals; for national companies, the discussions are smaller but still filled with a thousand nonsense, from garbage taxes to the thousands of euros spent on printer cartridges (for example), even if you produce screws that have nothing to do with printers. It seems to me that you are the one living in a somewhat too simple world.

I am certified 9001, 9002, and 9003 which are no longer needed, and I personally followed and drafted all the forms and manuals (back in 2004 I was always on debaser also for this reason, printing manuals like crazy after the abolition of 9002 and 9003). <<< These are product quality certificates, >>> No, not all of them, actually less than half of the various ISOs that have come and gone over the years. For example, I have never certified the final product; I have always certified management, production, and service. The 14000 is quite a special issue, considering that thousands of euros are spent on these things, people have somewhat had it with keeping up with it only to hear "it's no longer needed," and so the common discontent after 2004 generated little interest in 14000, which is still well advertised, don't worry, those who need to know do know, even if it doesn't make it to tg1. As for the issue of resources and Biodiversity, as I mentioned before, I don't know a thing, yesterday I tried to find something (on YouTube, mind you, not in serious places) but most were kids' research projects with their biology teacher. I found some texts that seem serious, and I will have to read a couple of them.

But how the hell can you read this crap? Between him and that stuff from the chronicles of my emerged balls, I really don't know who to choose.

Yeah, yeah. All talk when the wallet is full. We can barely afford to recycle the French power plants, and you talk about investing. Right. It’s not about “being fine” or “being bad,” it’s just about facing reality. It’s pointless to create arguments starting from a completely false premise, because as you say, the pencil costs. You can come up with all the reasoning you want starting from the assumption that the pencil is free, but they will remain fantasies without practical grounding and consequently meaningless. I also think a lot of “it would be nice if,” but the “it would be” is completely different from the “it is,” and so I adapt, I don’t waste time dreaming.

Okay, but, so? Are there any alternative proposals? I've only ever heard criticism, and the few proposals had glaring holes, making it not worth the immense risk of "change." << A system where those who sell earn 400 times what they spent to produce >> Come on, everything sounds great, but where does this abominable nonsense come from? 400 times? And what about something that costs 50 cents, how much did it cost to produce, below zero? Maybe the artists only make 400 times because you pay for the idea, which has no costs. But, stop.

<<< Biodiversity! That's the key point. >>> I will inform myself, thank you.

<< Puntinicaz. This crisis is different from the others >> Ok. So…? << Oil will run out around 2020 (see Hubbert's Peak), other basic resources for development (Germanium, Zinc, URANIUM!, PLUTONIUM! (forget nuclear power plants)) will run out even sooner. >> The entities that spread the data and own the deposits are the same ones. I don’t know how reliable they are; for all we know, they could run out tomorrow or in two hundred years. Besides, there are still many small deposits that are not being exploited now because they are too small to be worth it. But when there is a real need, then it will be worth it. Beyond that, when there is a need, the major economic powers will shift from oil to hydrogen and other sources, changing only the commodity but not the seller. Anyway, the real reasons for this crisis change depending on who is writing. Some say it was a move to get the UK into the euro, some say it was a move to get the UK into the euro while simultaneously lowering the dollar to facilitate exchanges with euro regions still being developed, and others say it was a move to reduce excessive inflation of the euro, or then there are all the theories about Asia. And they all seem plausible to me, except for some that I cannot reason about due to my lack of knowledge on the subject. But certainly, the "resources" are not an immediate problem; perhaps in 50 years we will start to see some changes in the sources of energy used on a massive scale.

"Do you think it's obvious to say that the world monetary system implies crises?" Yes. For now, it's the best system we've adopted. Throwing it away is unthinkable; we can think of making small adjustments (as we're already doing) that won't cause too much immediate damage. You can't just stop the whole world at once; it's unthinkable and would lead to insane chaos. Just look at the switch from the lira to the euro in Italy; within a year, everything cost double for no apparent reason, just a mass hysteria. And we're talking about a minor issue compared to changing the world monetary system. Small, slightly painless adjustments like currency changes or similar are already heavy. Realize that you're talking about something mind-boggling where the most powerful, cunning, and fast would seize power in a split second. Think of Abramovich; he was just a fool like many others, high enough in the party for his position but in a lousy area. Once communism fell, he was just clever and fast, and within two weeks, he found himself a billionaire. And he's a piece of shit who didn't even struggle; a complete lowlife. Making changes to such massive things is easy to say, but the chaos it creates cannot even be calculated because human greed can't be quantified. And then, above all, what would you change it with?

It's not about being great or not; it's simply about analyzing the facts: he is the most powerful (and richest) man in Italy and, consequently, one of the most powerful in the world. And it’s evident that he can say whatever nonsense he wants while remaining in his position because he is now so powerful that he is untouchable. You can be an asshole, good, a creep, a big shot. But all these things can easily coincide with being powerful. And it's the power that matters in this world, unfortunately or fortunately, that's how it is. Talking about the fact that he said Obama is "abbronzato" or other bullshit that he collects because he doesn’t have to care about what he says is pointless. Bar chatter. Other politicians who thrive on words have to watch what they say; he doesn’t give a damn; it’s neither a virtue nor a flaw, it’s just a fact.

Let's take Berlusconi. Okay, he started off with a pretty significant monetary base and was born amid banking intrigues, but he's someone who never sleeps and spends his life working. He has become the most powerful man in Italy, and does whatever the hell he wants. He may not have a minute of free time and has two million commitments, but he is in command. And everyone blah blah blah blah, but he has become too powerful to be even slightly affected by the mass of couch potatoes who alternate watching Ballarò with Ballando sotto le stelle. It's possible to create new parties in Italy; it's not difficult at all. Instead of shooting crap on the internet with two thousand anti-Silvio blogs (not saying you), why don't they just start a party? They don't want to, it's too much effort.
