Re: Malfador Games Pirated
Very solid point there. Our education system certainly does not focus on forign affairs or world politics. Even having sucessfully completed it, I am not entirely sure WHAT our education system focuses on.
I AM entirely sure that most people I meet are insufficiently educated, forigners included in this sweeping generalization. Most non-US residents seem to have a better handle on world events, though they seem to eat up just as much propoganda about the driving factors behind those events as do US residents.
Im not sure what that has to do with anything, but those guys have a legitimate point. Its not the evil people pirating games, is a world economy working against them. Its not like there are a whole lot of sales being lost to those pirated games. On the other hand.
This could be an arguement for taking down barriers to free trade, and bringing affordable goods to more areas of the world. That would end up in increased revenues in the end... But of course anti-globalists are the new humanitatians, and they will tell you that taking down barriers to free trade is just an excuse to abuse forign workforces and further weaken the economies of smaller nations.
believe what you like, but its sort of a religious debat at this point. not much to be gained for arguing either side.
