WTO becomes WTF

Wasn't it our oligarchs who decided, not much more
than 10 years ago, in Seattle,
that the World Trade Organisation would enforce a rule
that said that countries could not support businesses
because this was anti-competitive.
This was designed to guarantee that big western companies
would take over the world due to economies of scale,
and blackmail the poor countries into
surrendering their productive bounties
for free to western mercantilists.

This rule has been in permanent moratorium since the
Big Wall Street Putsch of 2008.

Many small countries, like Burkina Faso, Upper Volta and
Diego Garcia have tried to prosecute the United States
and the European Union under the rule, despite the moratorium
but they've been threatened with  undisclosed
political consequences perhaps involving an army
by the grand Ayatollah of Fiat  Moolah,
the Fakir/Faker, over in Washington, TG.
