Little late. She is/was one of the main architects of globalization.

Indeed! She is a fine one to talk.

I predict that Greece will be the next to buck the oppressive EU system.

LOL. Going with the flow, Mm. Lagarde? Is Mm. Le Pen overshadowing you?

Now that their grip on global economy is showing cracks, they suddenly change the tune. Until recently, anybody against globalization is an ignorant retard with racist, and xenophobic tendencies.

However, I suspect that this is a lip service, and won't lead to any substantial change on their part.

Lagarde said that there is "a growing sense among some citizens that they “lack control,” that the system is somehow against them",

You don't say...

It’s an odd source. But globalization is the process for which the elite takes off the shackles of democracy. Like the Gene discarding his lamp, bureaucracies like to have growing control without the yoke of a master, the electorate.

When a country like the US or Briton gives up control to an unelected group such as the IMF or the EU or the UN, they are giving up democracy. And our politicians flit back and forth between these groups and government with no checks or balances.

As she backed away from the approaching mob, she was heard to say sheepishly, “But I ADORE Waylon Jennings.” before turning around and breaking into a run...

Globalization is all about cheap labor. With a free flow of illegals, corrupt businesses get workers who have no legal protections and who will work for below minimum wage. They win. Americans lose. This is not something that can be made into a positive for working Americans.
