An article to make you sigh. Why do people love money so much? Is it because they are hoping to later do good with it? From a New York Times article that is more about Lanny Davis than Teodor Obiang. (And guess who Davis' special friend has been over the past years? Hilary Clinton, Secretary of State. And guess who has lots of oil rigs off the EqG coast? American oil companies. And guess who chuckles to themselves like Mr. Crab in the back office?)
