Poverty wasn’t the driver for Somali piracy. It was other countries ignoring Somalia’s maritime border and fishing in their waters and dumping garbage. The fisherman from around that area depended on those waters being clear and they went simply ignored. So Somali fishermen started patrolling their own waters with guns and soon figured out there were other ways to make money. Simply saying “they were poor” ignores the responsibility of other nations to respect maritime borders and the people who depend on it.

@@user-jr9wb7ev9e That doesn't address why piracy happens. Like Polymatter said in the video, piracy pops up whenever it is a viable business - that is to say, it pays better than other jobs and has relatively low risk and cost relative to the profit. Imposing a top-down command economy model on an economic sector (in this case, space mining) does nothing to address that. On another note, neither American Capitalism nor Soviet Socialism is "normal". Normal implies the innate way people exchange goods and services. The closest thing to that "normal" is opportunistic bartering, theft/seizures, and a perpetual exchange of goods, favors, and services between members of a family/clan/tribe/village. Those things seem to be the go-to economic practices of tribal societies, and they have been documented across pretty much all of world history.

@@ante5544 In fact, this directly relates to this issue, since space flights, mining and other types of interstellar activities in that case are becoming not a "business" in which people are trying to benefit, but a matter of national importance that does not depend on "payback" and profitability. And even more so in this case, it is simply impossible for "unaccounted for" vessels that would be physically capable of carrying out this cosmic banditry. This is the whole purpose of control and planning - crime is simply not allowed to be born, and if it does, it is immediately crushed in the bud, without concluding any deals with it and without seeking benefits. In the case of such an organized system, however, officials and performers on the ground will clearly appear, trying to improve their financial situation, organizing arrears and petty embezzlement, and this will have to be fought. So it's really obvious that every economic model has its drawbacks, but going back to the original topic - such measures will definitely effectively solve the problem of open banditry and piracy, which has been proven more than once by history (the entire early Soviet Union's struggle against banditry, homelessness and other aftermath of the civil war as an example will help you).

("The average person" is someone who has survived childhood and has a much better chance to survive for longer.) If this is impractical to work into the script concisely (as I've failed to do so in this comment), just say "the life expectancy is just 57 years".

Somalians were drawn to piracy because fisherman lost their jobs after the coastline of Somalia became a dumping ground of toxic waste from Italian and Swiss companies, as revealed in a landmark green peace study in the 80s.

This reminded me of that one spongebob episode where mr. krab's pirate granddad came to visit him. fearing he'd be mad seeing him running a "weak-ass" restaurant instead of a pirate ship, mr. krabs tried to fake being an actual pirate in command of his own ship. The end, the grandfather discovers that it was really only restaurant. But then to his surprise his dad was actually happy seeing the prices of the burgers, saying something along the lines of "now that's real piracy". come to think of it, what really is piracy, and who are the real pirates?

Look at me. I am the captain now!

1:40 nah ! when I hear the word ‘piracy’ Jack sparrow or Captain hook comes to mind !!

Can't talk about pirates without mentioning Barbarossa.

"When you hear piracy you think of Somalia." South-East Asia: "¿Am I a joke to you?"

My treasure? You can have it. I left it all there.

"Doing bookkeeping".. Wait what, you still have to do that stuff even as a pirate. WTF

Thinkso

The perfect place for a Pirate Party

......... Still the best channel on YT beautiful

I'm sorry, but the only thing I could think about while watching was that one episode of South Park where Cartman and some of the kids go to Somalia trying to be what kids typically think of when pirates are brought up, and actually end up becoming wildly successful at running there own piracy organization in a slum.

1:03 North?

Aye, matey it be where all the booty be hidden. A sea of gold doubloons awaits! Masters of the 7 seas we’ll be, lads and lassies! These skallywags can’t stop us!

I thought this video was about London, England

Well that's good. I hope those guys/ countries get the rate they deserve for the product taken from there country.

That's where my doordash orders always go. Goddamn pirates.

Of course

Why not add guards to every ship?

Can you make a video on India. Thank you.

4 days before the date at the start of the video, i played warframe for the first time. Cool

😅 I belive the Angolan navy report, we haven't seen any other pirates since that Greek ship so what's does that tell you about the incident??
