– About our own essence
– About companies sustainability reports
– About lighter punishments for larger wealth About our own essence

The European university must give in to the American university. American history, since the Incas, has to be taught thoroughly, even if the one of Greece´s rulers isn’t taught. Our Greece is preferable over the Greece that is not ours; we need it more. National politicians have to replace exotic politicians. May the world break into our Republics, but the essence must remain the one of our Republics.

About companies sustainability reports

How many times have we seen sustainability reports highlighting trivialities such as the awards obtained by companies, taking care of some green zone´s maintenance, donations to a charity institution, building a small school, the volunteer work of some of their employees, backing some museum, and leaving aside the discussion of important issues for society, as the impact that their products and services have or do not have, the lobby they exercise against regulations, the impact on labor conditions and the environment in their value chain, among others.

About lighter punishments for larger wealth

The former director of the Spanish employers association and compulsive hustler, Díaz Ferrán, has gotten two years, Félix Millet, another compulsive hustler, a year and…the Andalusian workers that forced a tavern to close down during the last general strike, have gotten four years. A real class proportion with a law enunciation that could easily go like this: the larger the wealth, the lighter the punishment.
