Psyops lie piece. Its not dead and they know it. They want us to buy te bs smokescreen it is.
I wish the press was not controlled by liberal liars lying all the time.
Bullcr*p.
So much of what we buy in America is made in China, that China is now competing with America for world’s most productive country.
And China continues to sell us ever more. Because “American” companies continue to shop there.
This article is a smokescreen, I think.
I think the point he is making is that globalization is not sustainable without constant growth, which itself is not a realistic prospect.
That is true since in their globalist world growth almost always requires debt.
Globalism is not dead. Watch the MSM reaction to Trump, or the stalwart RINO 50 for freedom or 70 for Hillary. That is the very picture of globalism. It is live and well. It recognizes the mortal threat to its continuing existence and is fighting back hard.
Now fortunately Globalism does not understand its true enemies, which are not Donald Trump, but the consequences of their viewpoint on the rest of the world. Radical Islam is antithetical to the globalist cause. So is American middle class well-being, and American middle class well-being is prerequisite to the American ability to create and project military power and the American support for using it. Little did the neocons realize how precious military power is, and how easily it is depleted if it is misused, like they did to upset the power balance in the middle east and let loose the dogs of barbaric islamic extremism - which until then had been kept in check.
it cannot exist without forever expanding
Globalism will join Global Climate Change and Communism to form the leftist trinity of cherished but failed concepts.
Why do you say that?
“Unless youre talking a dictatorship.”
Well, yeah, that’s the point. Isn’t it?
....But globalism is in the dying process.
Purple?
Meaning in the passing on process.
“globalization is not sustainable without constant growth, which itself is not a realistic prospect.”
I agree with your point and I’d add that constant growth is called cancer. We really need controlled healthy growth.
Trade of any sort, whether me-to-you or globally is not a zero sum game and does not require ever-increasing growth to persist.
The UN, EU and World Bank still exist. Globalization is not even unconscious yet.
When it is based on unpayable amounts of debt and fiat money it does.
Then blame debt and fiat money, not trade.
Hitler, Stalin and Mao were globalists.
