Fun and games in 'Big Business'.

I need a little help here.

Basically, I have a theory regarding the privatization of former public utilities by
Governments to shift funds/revenue as they see fit. Please read the links before
you reply..."well duh!"

TENIX, the largest Australian-owned defence prime contractor,
www.tenix.com...
has a 10yr alliance with a major power provider TXU,
www.tenix.com...
'TXU has agreed to sell its energy business in Australia, TXU Australia, and has announced its intent to sell TXU Gas, its largely regulated natural gas transmission and distribution business in Texas.'
TXU link, www.txucorp.com...
On 26 April 2004, TXU Corp announced it had entered into an agreement to sell TXU Australia to Singapore Power Ltd. We expect the sale to be finalised early in the third quarter of 2004, subject to regulatory approval, www.txu.com.au...

Singapore Power...

Does this mean the Singapore Gov' has a "vested interest" in Tenix?

TXU, from Texas to Oz to Singapore. I know that when i pay my next power bill
i'll be doing my bit for World-wide defence funding.

I think it�s possible that we all contribute unintentionally to the arms business and others. What I believe, all be it a bit extreme is that, we are all responsible for the deaths of innocent lives through our use of corporations that do deals with other corporations with out us knowing.
