Your post reminds me of two of my favorite quotes:
We have the best government that global finance and corporate can buy.
Globalism (internationalism / ‘Free Trade’) is communism dressed up in a three piece business suit.
You can substitute statism, collectivism,crony capitalism, fascism, collectivism for commmunism.
Exactly right. And we’re their slaves. By choice. Disturbing isn’t it?
