Vested and Other Interests

Does Taco Bell Philippines  Have The Legal  Right To Put LeBron James In Their Ads?

    Around this time last year, Forbes Magazine declared LeBron James a billionaire.  Tonight something on Facebook made my spidey sense tingle.

Filipino movie and TV actors don’t know how to play rich people

Many people have been wondering why Filipino films and television shows are such massive cringes. On the surface, the most obvious observation is that the emotional hooks used by the template plots of these products are overused and obsolete.

Why is there no P- or F-pop? Filipinos still in denial that theirs is a country of low standards!

Can’t afford onions? Welcome to the free market we all signed up to!

Poverty can exist in a free market economy, as it is a complex issue influenced by a variety of factors such as income inequality, lack of access to education and job opportunities, and government policies.
