Big corporations have a very simple rule—bribe or die.
That is all you need to know about “public policy” in this third world s&^%hole we live in.
I know that fact intimately. Worked as a commodity trader for a while. Physicals, not paper. There isn’t a large shipment of commodities that moves without lots of grease in most of the world, including Europe. The “grease” is part of the entry barriers of getting into the business. Who can I trust to bribe me honestly. Who has figured out how to hide the bribes and not get us caught. Those bribes are paid by the big ag companies and consumer products companies and people get paid up and down the chains.
