This is an interesting discussion. What most people don't realise is that capitalism as we practice it now wastes 99.9% of the human and material resources we currently use.

You did it again! See  Message for Tigo . You consumed the free 500 MB and then switched to charging me at the really extortionate rate, but without  sending me the warning message! Now, if you do this twice a week to each of a million people, you are stealing of the order of 160,000,000 Bs. (sí, ciento sesenta  milliones por mes). Then, after an hour or two:
