    In 2014 a Nobel Prize went to Jean Tirole. Professor Tirole created a theory about the reunification of cartels or regulations affecting the operation of monopolies . He wondered how to motivate large companies , which are not necessarily productive and how to deter them from abuse of their position in the market , for example, by blocking smaller , competing businesses. Winner of the governments of developed models that can use them to regulate big business without loss to its competitors and customers .
    This award was discussed as being given for something practical, but there are some doubts. It was all of course in his mind, but at the end it was just a PoerPoint presentation no-one will ever consider as valluable enough to put it into reality. Big corporations want only one - achieve the status of having enough money to have enough power not to care about anyone. It is not sad that the Nobel Prize Commitee gives once more a Nobel Prize for soemthing not worth mentioning, but the problem is nobody nowadays ask difficult questions. Instead of that we preffer easy answers. It is a problem o power, just beacuse people responsible for power should admit they do not know it all and start to ask us questions.
    All I am saying is first, that the greatest paradox of power is that people responsible for planning should not be responsible for putting that plans to reality, because they will always avoid great difficulties and make their plans for us suitable for their abillities. Now globalisation started to pull a demon of terrorism, where people have their logic of conspiracy of an agenda brainwashing silly minds. The tuth is that there's just one thing missing. The democracy is exhausted and a simple invidual to the whle globe starts to be the same as groups of people to the local power earlier. We need to still think about democracy, but we need social consultations of any kind. I know this seems irrational, because if anybody would like to exist in that space, most of the people would be just radicals willing to destroy the system. Eitherway the question remains - how to include a simple person in a decision chain? Let's be frankly. The past regulations of how to manage world power are right now, thanks to the Globalisation and the Internet not valid. Lack of changes will destroy our civilisation from the roots.
