BP just another multinational

Multinational companies only care about profit. Multinationals control countries look at BP running the US government in  the gulf of mexico.
Multinationals get you to buy products that promote cruelty ie  Kitkat  bars every bite you take kills orangutans because of the palm oil.
In Australia products containing palm oil a product that destroys the  habitats of many creatures in Asia can be labelled as vegetable oil. Because these big companies know that any caring person would never buy a product containing Palm oil, which is also high in bad cholesterol.
Companies like MacDonalds in fact nearly every  fast food chain forces you to torture animals -eggs from battery hens, meat from factory farms.
Multinational companies like Apple iphone that use slave labour in China at $5 a day.Because the real cost to produce an iphone could be as much as 8 times what you paid.
There are estimates that that the real cost of a Big Mac is around $200, if you take into account deforestation carbon emissions,ozone depletion, 1000's  of litres  of water to produce the feed, water for the cattle, potentional bowl cancer and cruelty.
The country of origin has so many loopholes. Multinationals like McCain their frozen veges come from China.  Try and find where the product comes from it is a tiny label hidden somewhere on the packaging.
But the multinationals know you don't want Chinese food products, so they send them to counties like New Zealand  and repackage them as a New Zealand product.
