The Soviet Union only practiced control. But we Americans better not boast. The recent air crashes raise the question whether a world in the end can work if it is a finely tuned watch. This is a big question. Take oil for example.
Oil is the lifeblood of the global economy and sometimes prices get too high or too low.
Nevertheless oil prices are under control. If they weren't global inflation would spiral upwards out of control. It's not difficult to pinpoint those who have achieved control of the oil industry and explain the order they have achieved. First the order. We all live in a single highly integrated global economy.
