We don't want foreigners here to eat this pre-salt oil rapadura.

Just this week, Petrobras was measured as the least effective big oil company...the drive for resource hegemony, guarantees this will continue.

Same as Europe reaction to American in 60's coming to eat their Euro pizza.

Same as US reaction to Japan coming to eat their hamburguer late 80s.
Japan is globalist now, they have aligned thier structural preferences to long wave strategic interests, tactics are allowed to exist as losses, as the Japanese have & do opperate within the world as multi valued reference space.. Americans have come to accept the Value added laid in by Japanese Brands. Japan adds value to processes its a skill set they cultivate. Toyota, ie many Japanese brands have enculturated themselves out of strategic necessity.

Same reaction when Germans did not want Arabs with petrodollars in the 70s coming to eat their sauerkraut. They enacted laws to avoid foreigners buying up Daimler, Mannesmann or VW.

Those foriegn dollars would not have been successful anyway. You have to have MORE than Money to produce successful enterprises. Capital hiccups along a path, substituting a dumb with dumber owner, will always meet the same end.

No need to talk about Japaneses not wanting foreigners to go there to eat their sushi back in its hey day...

Again Japan has adopted globalist tendencies within context of thier own homogeneous cultural preferences for interlinked systems manifested by cross ownership of resources distributed within a private goal to meet private ends.
