Of course he's doing it because he sees a business opportunity though, just like the Blackwater security firm amongst other american companies, see post-war Iraq as a business opportunity. |
I was born in Scotland, my parents are Scottish, I've lived in Scotland all my life. Being Scottish, I find golf courses beautiful, and part of our national heritage. I also think that we should make the most of our limited resources to provide jobs for the inhabitants of this country and to ensure the economy keeps ticking over nicely. I'm pretty sure my countryman Adam Smith would approve.
