Frankly I see this FTAA as another attempt by the US to set up tariff barriers towards Asia and Oceania.
Lazy American (and South American) corporations can't stand the pressure by hard-working Asian corporations (esp. from Japan and China), so they're trying to put up barriers to prevent the Asian capitalists from coming into the US.
Meanwhile Europe is sealing itself economically from the world....looks like the former colonial masters can't cope with competition by their colonies.
Amazing what working on Saturdays and Sundays can do for the economy....
Ideological loyalty is the act of giving your soul to a vague concept, to be manipulated by people smarter than you. |
