    ” The role of governments around the world is to nurture the GII by establishing policies that support and encourage private sector initiatives…” it is? That’s weird, I don’t remember reading that in any of my sociology textbooks – but anyway, back to the point: https://time.com/6110450/kalamazoo-foundation-for-excellence/ ““Four! Hundred! Million!

By the way it was from your writings in http://www.channelingreality.com (Vicky's old & wonderful site, readers, in case you didn't know) I learnt Mussolini defined fascism is corporatism.
