    How ironic that a communist country is destroying the American working class. The great capitalists have to be enjoying this.

    One world government is comming, but it's not going to be according to Zoellick's vision. No peaceful transition to a one-world system can occure. Only war will accomplish this goal, as was the vision of Adolf Hitler. This globalist movement is Hitlarian and must be stopped at all cost....freedom is a stake.

    All of the fine theories about globalization still cannot get around the fact that it is a net loser for the middle class of developed countries. The rich in developed countries benefit through their investments, the poor benefit by being able to buy more goods with their welfare payments, but the middle class suffer with declining wages due to international labor arbitrage.

    Global strategists usually suggest that some kind of trade displacement welfare payments to affected middle class workers will make everything all right. How insulting! Turn the middle class into a welfare class.

    The American Revolution was initiated by the middle class in 1776. Instead of dumping tea into the harbor, it might be time to start dumping Asian cargo containers.
