Appetite for Profit: All Aboard for Ice Cream: Nestle Peddling Junk Food on Amazon River to Reach Brazil's Slums

Some progressive foodies are incessant about Nestle selling their product in remote areas in the amazon it posted the comment bellow:

"The Swiss company has a team of 7,000 saleswomen who peddle packs of Nestle goods door-to-door in Brazilian slums."

A company makes a investment in a poor rural area, trains a work force providing jobs and innovates a distribution method to deliver the new product and you sanctimoniously declare it an outrage. I guess only food lawyers have the wisdom and insight to know what’s good for the people, they couldn’t possibly make the choice themselves.

The arrogance here is stunning, poverty is preferable to development.

G20's deaf ear towards Obama

Why aren't the Europeans listening to the US's call to continue "stimulating" the economy through massive deficit spending? The obvious wrong headedness of was never an obstacle in the past, but the difference this time is Greece.

The sovereign debt crises has scared governments so much that they are forced to address the reality. The social democratic model is not sustainable programs & spending must be cut. The big question is will Obama head figure this out before it's too late?

Starbucks is the new Wal-mart

If the people really do not want a Starbucks in their neighborhood then the store will fail as residents patronize other establishments. But to force out an organization by government fiat is wrong. Even actors should have enough common sense to figure that out.
