That is your problem: You have not taken the time to understand other cultures. You believe they are not being honest but they ARE!! If they can not do the work, they tell you, but in their own language, not directly but in subtle ways. The

Because Spain is currently one of the more decentralized country in the world? Spain created the "autonomias" in order to appease secessionists. Not a brilliant idea given them the control of the Education(that teaches them that S

You are highly biased as a german speaker. English is a germanic language. You say "gut" instead of "good", "zu" instead of "to", "wir" instead of "we", "Wetter" instead

Isn't that amazing that people could justify and rationalize everything? You take the worst thing people can do, like assassinating people and you find always a rationalization that the criminals construct. Hitler took absolute power b

It is more complex than that. Japan is not a producer of fruits. They come from far away. This means they have to transport it economically, that means they are transported by sea. That means bananas are green when collected and sent to Jap

That is not a proper answer. If you publish a design, it becomes prior act, and nobody can patent it. You can even do that in the patent office without filling a patent, making them the registration of your design, without patenting it. It
