As globalist Henry Kissinger once said concerning America's role in overthrowing the democratically-elected government of Chile, The issues are much too important for the Chilean voters to be left to decide for themselves?

And you can rest assured that the overwhelming majority of Chileans are happy he felt that way today.

Globalization will ultimately mean the responsibility of important decisions that used to be determined via democratic processes and institutions will not exist. Democracy cannot exist beyond the nation-state:

I believe it will lead to the weakening of the nation-state and we will look to undemocratically elected organizations such as the WTO, etc.

It's a brave new world and you seem to be comfortable with the idea of a weakened United States. You seem to like the idea of our wealth being redistributed all over the world. And most of all you seem to really like the idea of Americans brought down a few pegs. That is just competely incomprehensible to me.
