Public Citizen's Global and Trade Watch is here.

People should hear more from experts like Lori Wallach (see below post). It is just horrifying that an organization can supercede laws in all countries and demand they conform.

No wonder this country is one fucked up mess.

The WTO MUST, along with those trade agreements, be abolished. The neoliberal philosophy underlying its policies can't be fixed.

"Globalization" and Trade

If I hear that word again, I will scream because all it is is an excuse for corporations and the financial elite to screw over the masses all over the world.

This lecture, from 2008, is absolutely brilliant in outlining what the WTO and its ilk are ALL about.

This person says this in plain English.

This lecture is VERY important to hear.

As Far As I Am Concerned,

the whole concept of "globalization" should be thrown in the trash can as yet another failed economic philosophy.

Instead of it being an idea of raising everybody's living standards throughout the world, "globalization" was nothing more than a justification for a race to the bottom.

Why

should anybody be surprised there are sweatshop conditions in China?

After all, this is what the multinational corporations are looking for when they outsource.
