Lawmaker predicts defeat for 'Buy American' language (Defense Department procurement update)


"But, in general, the protective system of our day is conservative, while the free trade system is destructive. It breaks up old nationalities and pushes the antagonism of the proletariat and the bourgeoisie to the extreme point. In a word, the free trade system hastens the social revolution. It is in this revolutionary sense alone, gentlemen, that I vote in favor of free trade." ~ Karl Marx, On the Question of Free Trade, January 9, 1848 http://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/1848/01/09ft.htm#marx


"Communists and socialists feel sure that setting up international “free” trade systems which impose regulations chuck full of intrigues, redistribution plans, arbitrary law, and interdependence schemes, will win out against the conservative interests of every free nation. What could be better than to use “free” trade to reverse the advantage of the relatively free, moral, prosperous,
and strong nations of the Earth, so that the tyrannical, amoral, poor, and weak nations of the socialist bloc might get the upper hand? What could be a more cunning approach than to market the idea that those who oppose “free” trade are enemies of freedom?"

Like I been saying, oil is to Arabs as labor is to communist Red China; and they both regard the pooling of such assets, to be their domain ... at any cost.

Indeed, it is important to point out how, in Marxist economic and geopolitical strategy, a key concept is the idea of leveling at the global playing field. Not only does it foment anti Westernism in developing countries who begin to feel emboldened by the influx of, ironically, Western investment, but it strains the Western powers themselves and makes them less capable to confront the Marxists. Anyone who naively believes that the events of 1989 - 1991 in Europe somehow signaled the death of Marxism as a virulent, anti Western force, needs to look at the geopolitical realities since then, and the growing anti Western axis which is a literal "league of extraordinary" goons, all arrayed against us - Islamists, Communists, and other anti Westernists. Oddly, the nations who fit into this list are largely the same ones which comprised the Soviet empire and nations they at one time or another aided. This time, they march together in unison.
