A glimplse of the future for Europeans?

Take a look around the world from China to you own back yard and tell me where does honesty or "fair" play a part in capitalism?
====
rule of law is a critical concept.  From the family unit, to the town, city, county, parish.....colony...state, nation....league of nations.........united nations......whatever you unit of measurement is.

 I agree capitalism is victimized by greed just as communism and socialism are victimized by greed.  Both politically and economically.

Do you agree steinhoff that law plays no useful role in global economics?
WTO is as useful to global economics as the UN is to global politics....is this a fair statement?

I think this little sidebar illustrates clearly the potential  for a very poor future between europe and america.  Your reluctance to address this issue is a real reflection of the overall euro attitude towards unfairly undercutting american industrial strength at every opportunity.  Any dishonest move is a legitamit move when applied against american industry.

ok, how about this:
EL-AL the Israeli national airline decided to replace its aging fleet. After considering the alternatives, they decided - Airbus. The US goverment didn't like that and forced the Israeli goverment to force EL-AL to switch to Boing.
Fair business competition?
The US goverment has its own ways of financially supporting american industry with no-risk money. See also "foreign aid".

We all get to die. What future is there in that?........

Perhaps if they studied the life of Jesus Christ they would realize they have a future. A bright future, full of Gods love.....an eternity!

An eternity in the blissfull joy and love of the Lord, forever and ever....amen.

lol
I liked that, really

These are not the gripes of Boeing. Boeing complains about the use of risk free capital to develop high risk commercial jetliners. Airbus recieves billions in risk free loans from the governments of spain, germany, france and the uk. Boeing recieves no such guaranteed risk free loans from any government for any program

Not true. The Japanese government has contributed about $1.5 billion to Dreamliner development, the Italian government about $500 million. That's in grant aid, though, not loans, so it never has to be paid back.
