(Sad as it is the big things all over the world always seem to be owned by American corporations if one may recall Che Guevara's epic autobiographical account of his motorcycle rides through Latin America, his vivid imagery of the disheveled workers who lived in immense poverty in and around those (copper) mines. My recent visit to a coal district in Eastern India, although Indian owned, would perhaps echo such sentiments. After all, it's a Profit State, where we chew money and buy sex.)
