The business of America is business wheather[sic] it be in the next county or half way round the world.President Trump is keenly aware and in support of American business.

Globalism, dissolving or lessening border control to undermine the nation-state and the will of the people in those nation-states. It is the opposite of nationalism.

Symptoms:

Promiscuity with regards to the entry of goods and humans with no regard to the deleterious effect on the indigenous population.
Purposely failing to retaliate to other nations mercantilism and protection of markets and no proper response through counter tariff of imported goods for the benefit of international corporate profit.
Allowing illegal aliens free access and super citizen status.
Flooding the USA with foreign immigration with the sole propose of pushing a left wing ideology and to reduce wages.
Global Labor Arbitrage: Often, a prosperous nation (such as the United States) will remove its barriers to international trade, integrating its labor market with those of nations with a lower cost of labor (such as India, China, and Mexico), resulting in a shifting of jobs from the prosperous nation to the developing one. The end result is an increase in the supply of labor relative to the demand for labor, which means a decrease in costs and a decrease in wages. "

central_va: Don't forget the extra burdens placed on safety net provisions for those who lost their good paying jobs. The additional costs associated with healthcare of illegal immigrants seeking medical attention. The additional costs to school illegal immigrants. Just to name a few.

Bert: I am not a mind reader so I don't know how you stand on open borders. However, since you do not care about the loss of good paying jobs, coupled with a 500 billion trade imbalance with China alone, I had to ask. So while you viewed it as a stupid question undeserving of an answer, I viewed it as just as important of a question as the trade issue. Unlike most of those standing up against President Trump on trade tariffs, they are for open borders. Glad to see you are at least not in support of that.
