[pp.int.general] MegaUpload raided, shut down on request of US authorities

[Justus Römeth]

Well, by German law a company over a certain size has to have workers'
representatives (not necessarily unionized, but that happens often) on the
board of directors in companies. I think capitalism works fine if you work
with stakeholders, not just shareholders in leading the company. Granted,
it doesn't work always and in every industry to the same degree, but the
American system is not the inevitable result of a capitalistic system, just
as Cuba and China show that the USSR in 1990 is not the only inevitable
outcome of a communist system.
