I also wonder what kind of responsibilities you believe a business might have over just making money. Especially when they are investing in an area whose government has poor human rights, and environmental records.
Did I miss your answer to those questions, or do I have to read the book to get to those?

Hhmm....you want to turn this thread into a political discussion? This is CGArchitect and I'm not into politics. The only thing I can respond is that a good business needs to respect laws. Mine certainly does.
Oh, and by the way, the US has such a great track record when it comes to the environment and human rights. Let's not practice selective history. Just think of Nagasaki and Hiroshima for a moment. So many innocent people were vaporized in an instant (after the war was practically won). Did you read about that? Or have you been too busy drinking lattes and walking around in Birkenstocks?
