    "Globalization looks different when you can tell the pilot when to leave and where to go, and when there are no security lines to wait in when you are heading off for distant destinations. Those who are free to move about the planet this way come to have more in common with themselves than with their own countrymen."

    This is why we now see a deliberate, concerted effort by the government, the unions and the biggest corporations in America to make the United States the world's largest Third-World nation. Without the moral, industrial and social power of the United States to dominate the thinking of the world, oligarchs world-wide will be able to act on their merest whim without concern of repercussions from the U.S.


    But, there's one thing the superclass must always remember, especially in the age of the Internet: they're outnumbered. And with the power of the Internet, they can be found. The critical mass is building of those who aren't in the superclass and are beginning to resent it and the superclass' activities which dominate the lives of others.. It's merely France prior to the French Revolution writ globally. Heads will roll, eventually, and the world will turn again.
