America needs to be a 'beacon of progress' for globalization: Microsoft CEO
Yahoo ^ | 7/11/2016 | Anita Balakrishnan

Posted on 07/11/2016 12:08:41 PM PDT by GilGil

The CEOs of two of the largest U.S companies — Microsoft and GE — pushed back strongly against a political tide that threatens to weaken America's ties to the global economy.

Monday on CNBC's " Squawk on the Street ," Microsoft (MSFT) CEO Satya Nadella took aim at U.S. trade policies that would prevent the country from remaining a "beacon of progress" on the world stage.

"Right now what I'm looking for is the politics in our country to get to a place where people can win elections by making a case for both globalization and addressing the inequities that do exist in our society," Nadella said.

Meet the America-last crowd. These are the globalists Trump is referring to. Listen to them and you get a clear message that their multi-national corporations come first and Americans come last. Do these people even understand how bad they appear to Main Street?

New thoughts from me on this day
Mike Suchman·Monday, July 11, 2016
As I see the world that I currently live in fall apart, & it seems to be coming from the inside out. I am posting this piece about Yin & Yang as a foundation of my thinking.

The Yin-Yang Theory
The Yin Yang theory holds that all phenomena consist of two opposite aspects, yin and yang, which are variously defined as: up and down, left and right, light and dark, hot and cold, stillness and movement, substance and function, etc. The movements and changes of yin and yang give impetus to the development of everything or in the words of the Suwen, “Yin and yang are the law of Heaven and Earth, the outline of everything, the parents of change, the origin of birth and destruction....” Yin and yang represent two opposite aspects of every object and its implicit conflict and interdependence. Generally, anything that is moving, ascending, bright, progressing, hyperactive, including functional disease of the body, pertains to yang. The characteristics of stillness, descending, darkness, degeneration, hypoactivity, including organic disease, pertain to yin. “

I do not know as of yet, as to which is out of balance, but something is very out of balance. I do fear that when nature snaps back into balance, it is going to be a very painful experience for us all. And yes there are going to be more lives lost along the way, I do grieve for their loss/s but if you are doing harm/evil to others, you are going to get what you have put out. But to those who die trying to save others, there is a greater reward awaiting for you, when you get to the final judgement of your life/s.
And if you do NOT learn the lesson/s from this life times/lines, you are going to come back & relearn the lesson that you should have learned the first time around. [Kind of like being held back a grade in school] To those who do learn their lesson/s, you get to move along in the quest for perfection/Heaven or whatever you want to call it.
I also must learn to calm my inner anger/rage. Not to respond so fast or harshly. But to learn the facts first. But there are times when rapid response is required, & then I can and will act for the best good that I can see. That does mean that I will take a stand for those whom I feel are oppressed [like the unborn, those who do not want to participate in state sanctioned events due to their personal beliefs, to those who will defend themselves & others with lethal force (as maybe required) ]
So now with that being said, I can & will act like an avenging angel if & when I see the need for it. So to those who would cause evil beware & be very afraid, for there are others like myself out there...

And we ARE WATCHING!!!

Why would you think Satya Nadella gives a crap?

He's not American. He's Indian, as in, from India.

He may be "naturalized", but do you think he is in any way connected to our nation?

Imagine if he were subject to the Draft. Hey, Private Nadella, up on point! Taliban incoming!

Think he's here for that? Would go through it for his "papers"?

If he's a citizen, he swore in with his fingers crossed behind his back.

It’s really not their world to globalize, unless they abolish all notions of local and cultural and national independence.

Note the Indian names.
Intel started it march to outsourcing soon after enough Indians were promoted to critical positions in the company.

It all began with Vihn Dahlm, who headed up the original Pentium marketing team.
Intel began hiring more and more India based marketing and design personal based on hiring demands by Indian managers.

Magically, 20 years later nearly all new hires in engineering came from India and Americans began to get actively fired.

The end result is one of the finest technical companies in the USA slowly began to destroy itself from the inside.

They are also tunneling for REFUGEES. They are in a special arrangement with Obama Inc. Just tweeted the globalizers in the story and told them to set up in Syria. Get lost.

...which they do!

You are absolutely correct, but they don’t care. Real Americans need to wake up and see through this nonsense.

These liars profit from the inequities. Build a product with communist slave labor in China to sell to Americans.

And this Indian guy does not care about India either.

When I first started in business I worked for a company called DEC which was a fortune 500 company at the time. This was 30 years ago.

DEC did a lot of training in those days. They would send me to corporate HQ for 6 weeks at a time.

The point is that the trainers would all push the idea that we needed to become “corporate citizens.” A corporate citizen always put the corporation first.

30 years later the corporate citizens are now globalists. That is 30 years of millions of corporation types getting indoctrinated and now globalism is the corporate motto. The problem is that American corporate types are getting thrown the garbage can because they are too expensive.

these morons.... the bulk of the planet are turd worlder muslims who want to kill us.
Majority are illiterate, ignorant bastards with a huge desire to kill anyone from the G7 nations.

Islam cannot create anything of benefit to mankind, yet they are equal?
And the moron geniuses want to globalize and drag down the creators of technologies, ideas, liberty and freedom?

That isn’t going to last long...

The CEOs exhibit a form of "Tunnel Vision," that discredits their opinions. They are at best very, very confused. In focusing on business opportunities without regard to duty to their homeland, they offer only a very distorted basis for the policies that they advocate. In suggesting a course for public policy, which shows no understanding of--not even a recognition of the clear Constitutional intent--their opinions carry no more logical weight than the juvenile wish lists of little children, in the early years of a grade school education.

What they fail to grasp, fail even to address in passing, are the clear purposes of their even being a United States of America, We discuss those purposes in urging the importance of Donald Trump's demand that we again put America & the Americans first: Trump: The Issue!.

Trump gets it; these CEOs remain clueless. The purpose of the American Government is the interests of Americans.

The Corporate cultures you so correctly describe, have also played an enormous role in undermining the health of communities, and community identification, in towns across America. As they do so, the capacity of our people to resist encroachments by the Federal bureaucracy, has been severely limited; while the interior social fabric in those communities has become completely scrambled, with all sorts of very bad consequences (such as deteriorating public school systems, unemployment, crime & indifference to cultural values, once shared in those communities).
