Usually when the World Bank officials visit any developing country the first thing they request is elimination of any subsidizing scheme to any good, starting for bread ending with fuel. They claim that all activities should be privatized even sun-rays (if they can)….I wonder whether they shall say it again ….the Capitalism has collapsed and announced dead the minutes the bail out scheme was approved. It is a literally nationalization scheme of the private sector.
It is not first time that the private investment has to be taken over by the governments; for example it happened before in 17th century during the railway investment fever. A lot pyramid schemes and the private investments proved fraud and lot of small investors lost huge money to fraud schemes, thus publicized.
When the Communism failed, the west went into a hot rampage pushing all the developing countries to abide by the rules of capitalism and sell all their national assets to private sector and a new wave of privatization fever….that was mainly in the early nineties and specific after the collapse of then USSR….what shall be the case now, shall officials of the world bank run around again with a new theory of nationalizing assets is the way forward to revive economy….I believe in this crisis the world bank as the capitalism castle has lost face and cannot be redeemed…I wonder what his officials shall say to all those countries that they once told that the only way to revive economy is privatization???!!
