human
rights
Our journalist Terence Corcoran of the National Post has been explaining to us "Why

profits come before people⁽¹⁾" while at the same time he himself doesn't know what is

fundamentally right in our social and economic environment. We have been describing

that human rights come before property rights⁽²⁾, that people come before the Gross

Domestic Product (GDP)⁽³⁾, and that intelligence rests with the people and not with the

big multinational corporations⁽⁴⁾.

property
rights
These fundamental truths have no place in the brainwashed mentality of Mr. Corcoran,

and this journalist preaches our social and economic growth as dependent on the intellectual

property rights owned by the multinationals.

an essential
drug
Therefore, Mr. Corcoran advocates the use of these intellectual paper rights to make

profits against the intelligence of the people and their well being. Mr. Corcoran concurs

with the right of a pharmaceutical multinational company of having the monopolistic

right of being the only company to market an essential drug for the salvation of humanity.

at the
expense
of people
This is the philosophy of the World Trade Organization, to make money at the expense

of people and this not what free trader Adam Smith envisioned when he said that the

wealth of a nation is in "the property which every man has in his own labour, as it is

the original foundation of all other property⁽⁵⁾." Profits don't come before people .

Mr. Corcoran
