"It's a global economy now"

Those of you that think the nation state is dead are in for a very rude awaking. Only the usa deludes itself into thinking that a Utopian NWO will replace the nation state. Nationalism is very much alive and well in the non western world.

I think that most of us normal Americans still love our country and don't consider "nation" to be a dirty word. It's only a small elite that really believes in this internationalist NWO crap.

Unfortunately, they have most of the power and the gap between them and us seems to get bigger by the day.

Because President Bush is so chummy with the UN and the wannabe president of the world, Kofi Annan? Get a grip.

I'm not talking about that, I'm talking about a global economy. Technological advances over the past 50 years have allowed the global marketplace to evolve beyond borders.

Capitalism means we all benefit from free trade- it is not a zero-sum game. Comparative advantage means both parties benefit from trade. When we outsource labor to a cheaper market, it allows us to use valuable resources to produce products in which we have an advantage.
