This "protect American jobs" is a real surprise coming from Kissinger - he is a "One Worlder."

Very surprising.

I would say it's more than surprising. It's downright ominus. If a big "globalist" like Kissinger is saying this, then I imagine America is in more trouble than we "peons" know.

Early in the last century, the English working class were starting to grumble about their condition - and with good reason. The grumblings continued to the point of imminent action against the government.

In response to what he saw as big trouble for the landed classes, Winston Churchill - about as conservative as you can find - ushered in a number of purely socialist programs to improve things for the workers.

I am beginning to sense similar grumblings in America. Perhaps some of the elites have noticed that us working people are not at all happy?

I was not surprised. Kissinger is a guy would understand intuitively the "political and social" implications of not having a large middle class. He would leap immediately to "Venezuela, Brazil.." and start thinking about Shining Path guerillas and all the rest of the upheaval crap that comes from having 88 rich families and a hundred million poor people, and nothing in between. That is where we are going to end up with this if it doesn't stop.

The economics is clearly in favor of free trade, and in "the long run" it's the right answer, but there isn't going to be a long run for the current Constitutional Republic if we gut the middle class. We'll have Marxists elected by landslides before the Invisible Hand has time to clean up the mess.
