The west does not mean the US. Such arrogance. All the US does now is make terrible international policy decisions like invading middle eastern countries looking for 'terrorists' with 100'000 soldiers and create debt. We are great at borrowing money, that's a large part of our 'economic impact' on the rest of the world - creating debt, spending more than we earn and giving the Chinese a debtor.
As for the copyright law, I'm not suprised. Corporations tell governments what to do, social democracy is in jeopardy. Just look at the financial collapse and the trillions given to corporations to bail out their greedy irrational enterprise. All sides of politics agreed on the bailouts, while the over taxed public had to grin and bare it while their hard earned money went into the pockets of billionaires.
