4. Exploitation of natural resources: These large corporations massively exploit both human and natural resources as most of the profit generated from doing business in the host country goes directly back to the parent country

It is good that you mentioned this and it is important to note it that corporations or multinationals exploit the host countries resources for the advantage of parent company in their home and as you mentioned again in your last paragraph that they are not charity organizations, this means that no matter how it is painted that they recruit locals (which sometimes are underpaid), their sole aim is profit taking because they are not charitable but profit oriented.

However, there is something that is suppose to be the responsibility of these multinationals that I have not seen in your list and that is that they are suppose to perform some social responsibilities to the host countries which is apart from employment of locals. So I don't know if this should fall under advantages.

Multinationals corporations are suppose to perform social responsibilities to host countries that they exploit their resources and degrade there environment. The first reference is Nigeria where her Naija Delta have been badly degraded by the oil companies, excavating, rig and drilling activities that have changed the suppose natural blessing to gnashing of teeth because of the neglect through the Nigerian government. The region that is laying the "golden egg" for country have been neglected and this has caused droughts and food insecurity because their soil have all been bastardised because of oil drilling activities . The soil degradation that has caused them their agricultural products losses is not only the challenge there, their waters also have been polluted because of the oil drilling activities and acquatic lives is suffering as the people are predominantly farmers and fisher men, they also suffer regular floods.

Consequently, the oil companies or multinationals should do well to be perform their MOU with the communities of their hosts and perform social responsibilities to communities where they are like build good road networks, award scholarship to the youths, clear up oil mess in the region, support them in aspect of need since they have taken away their environment with them, employment is not enough.

Sometimes they say to be wise is preferred in certain things like this one. I will choose the part of being wise to split the stake money because there is no guarantee that second roll will be my favour, although it is suppose to be a game of luck but if it turns out like this is better to split. For a chronic addict player I believe splitting won't be an option. I have experience this kind of dilemma in a snooker game where two players came into tie on the bet they went and one player suggested to split and each will take back their stake money to go their way and the other refused, they continued on the next round of betting and it happened that the guy who earlier suggested a split happen to be favoured to win and the other guy that refused the split lost out but he didn't regret his decision because he is a chronic addict gambler. Just like I said a chronic gambler may likely not want a split in the situation.

Another reason to be worried is that the naira was equivalent to the dollar and in close proximity with the pound sterling.

All those years back wey naira still make sense, the economy good and production dey go on but now ask yourself wetin dey go on for the country even you confirm say toothpick self ww dey import am. Okay make you check google and see how many companies dey run leave naija. Me I just check and drop these links. Even nairaland self, discussion dey there.

Presently, the US dollar to the naira is #433.72 and the pound sterling is £480.84.

3247  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: October 08, 2022, 05:26:38 PM
It is inconceivable that this match was very thrilling with Juventus' defense which was strong enough and finally Milan could penetrate it and at the end of the match Milan got the score up to 2-0 thanks to Fikayo Tomori and Brahim Diaz, with the score that has been obtained it feels Juventus is very difficult to catch up and win Milan is in sight.

The game is such a difficult one but what broke the back of Juventus is the second goal at the 54th minutes and now Juventus is fighting hard to get a goal before the late minutes of the game to level up. At this moment it is still 2 : 0 with Milan lead.
3248  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How does betting on exhibition matches even work? on: October 05, 2022, 12:20:03 PM

But in exhibition matches it's all about numbers. Numbers of people who watch, numbers of people who buy ticket and other things etc. Revenue.

This is the purpose of exhibition matches and it is geared towards a purpose maybe for giving the realized money for some social responsibilities or to less privileged, so it is not taking seriously for both parties. Betting on such matches even if the promoters decide to put out for bet or the casino bet on it, it is not a serious bet and I can avoid putting money on it but it does specify a winner at the end just for spectators delight.

Have you checked if you are the only one going through that in the casino. You may as well confirm from the other players to know before you accuse them of limiting your account.

3251  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: New Gambling Site has a Short Signature Campaign on: October 02, 2022, 09:50:57 PM
I think that a legendary member should know better in the issues about signature campaigns going off within the short time and beyond the expectations of promoters to stay longer. Most times new casinos try to find a way to bring their services to the forum even if they run for a week, they might have achieved a kind of awareness and they may decide to shut down the campaign and use other medium of publication.



I think this is more related to individual gambling sites as for how long they want to run the campaign, how much it was beneficial to them and also the funds they have allocated for marketing.


Yes this is the simple fact about it. If they are starting up they may intentionally open a campaign for few weeks while they taste run the traffic generated via budget for the campaign and if they are not making satisfactory profit then they can go down. There are some that run for just a week and go off for like a month, I think Hhampuz managed such campaign in the past, blender.io. Also some test run and continue for a while like blackjack just to mention few. It is about choice, decision to budget and traffic that goes to the casino.
3252  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Woman Abandons 4-year-old Child In Gambling Shop As Collateral After Huge Losses on: October 01, 2022, 11:33:43 AM
I wonder what her intention was, maybe that the child should be held by the gambling shop to repay the equivalent of the money lost in labor.

If I'm to preempt the mind of the woman, she probably would be thinking it is just for a while that the child would be let free by either someone around to bring him back for her while she makes promise to pay the debt gradually. She could be shy and thinking the operator of the lotto stand won't take it lightly with her and so she has to act that way. I don't think she genuinely wanted to use the son for collateral, not that. This news I think from the link happened in enugu, Nigeria and Nigerian woman in her right senses won't use a baby for lotto collateral or the news fact is not properly disseminated, maybe the woman had a friend or someone close there that could bring the baby back to her before negotiation for payment would begin. So I don't believe the news of using the son for collateral on lotto gambling.

This is looking good on me. The green and white logo for bitcoin is also the colours of the Nigerian flag and moreover today is the 62nd Independence day of Nigeria. The challenges of Nigeria is on the governance and not on the people and one day we shall get it right by electing purposeful Nigerians into government and things will turn around for good then the youth will have the freedom of proudly and openly adopting the bitcoin train without any government interference.

It is a win... for bitcoin.

It is green all the way. Bitcoin wins, Nigeria wins, Africa wins and the world freedom is assured.

It looks like a shooter game. Just google it and you will find how to possibly download it only you won't be able to bet on it to make profit.  Roll Eyes
3255  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: About Casino Licenses on: September 28, 2022, 03:45:26 AM
I’m sure there are certain territories that would likely allow you to operate a casino without licenses but would open you up to the possibility of potentially getting shut down for a number of reasons.  For me regardless of your situation I highly doubt that it would be a good idea to do this.

I think casinos and gambling houses do operate with licence or under a particular umbrella. If they don't have such coverage then that means there is no instituted authority or government that controls the system. The reason that you don't have casino or gambling places is some countries is that the government there has made it clear to prohibit it which is why they are not found there because they need approval to operate in the first place and operating without approval means illegal and it will go down.  Like in Nigeria, the government is not prohibiting any of such and the gambling companies are under an umbrella and franchise to operate and that is sort of authority and recognition for operation and adult gamblers are not seen to be gambling illegally because the company is under licence.

Oga mi well done noo here wen u see so na learn we dey learn no be this kind matter we dey discuss. What you will do be say make us follow you put obi for d president by tell us watin him fit do becos 9ja need  better person now, convince us make we support am. politics no be by fighting Pls take note.

I hope say you dey this country abi you dey join us from Libya? Even people wey dey Libya self sabi say Peter Obi record when him be Anambra State government no get comparison. The record of cutting down the cost of governance for Anambra State wey make him leave huge sum of money behind for the next government and the money follow for wetin de next government take build airport there. During him time, him improve the standard of education for Anambra state wey make the students of Anambra then begin dey top for Waec, neco , GCE and other academic performance wey follow. Before who sabi Anambra with education but na peter Obi make the interest con grow because him subsidize the fees, build classroom and equip dem with computer and him no own salaries or pension like many of our governors dey do. Peter Obi try for Anambra and efcc no look him side after him leave office, so na that kind mindset to cut down expenses of running government and use the money invest in infrastructure, and capital projects the country need. The only thing be say cabals plenty for the Nigerian government and if peter Obi no get enough Labour Pater law makers for both house of rep and senate, e go hard for him to achieve many things because law makers from other political parties go do as their masters direct them and frustrate his administration.

School does not guarantee anything.

It does and what it is that it guarantee? Those things are as basic as the ability to expose your knowledge. It gives you the reading and writing to help you internalize your knowledge and bring your potential out to face the challenges of the world and that is why you see many grand breaking histories, achievements and innovation in technology and digital development is not just the work of dollard but those that have excelled in education and skill acquisition. Education those not guarantee that you will get a job true, in fact whoever thinks of staying on a job all their lives is bereaved of idea but education certainly guarantee certain things and most of the things you have said on the body of your post are not achievable if not for the common basic thing as knowledge improvement guarantee by education that is not only that of class room because education or school is both formal and informal levels.
3259  Economy / Economics / Re: UK Under Recession, Inflation Hitting World Strong Economies on: September 23, 2022, 03:54:47 PM

To citizens of developing countries who are already having a hard time even before this global crisis came, things must have already been more or less unbearable today.

UK economy is not looking like having recession if the little percentage margin in inflation is to be focused because the economy still very fertile and receiving  people coming in from less developed countries. They are still advertising for jobs to job seekers in the country. Just like you said, the world is having a slide because of the global activities over the last five years. Covid-19 pandemic is one big factor that pushed many economy downwards and now the effect of war in Ukraine is part of the rise of global inflation.
