This is a free documentary. about oil and the people of the Niger Delta. It's staggering when you think of the amount of profit the oil companies make and yet that wealth does not benefit the communities that live around it. The ecological and human catastrophe that is the product of this industry is staggering. As you will see, the pirates have no means of subsistence other than to piracy. This is capitalism working is it? The so-called free market at work
Humanity has the means to produce energy in a different way and use human labor power in a different way, but what drives production in the capitalist system is profit. No profit, no sewer system, no profits, no health care system, no profit, no investment in a safe drinking water system. Africa, and the world in general doesn't lack the means to change all this, but capitalism and those that propagate it will not leave the stage of history without being forced. We either change the system or it will drive us in to the abyss.
