Jul 7, 2008 - why can't we just say no to globalism? we don't want to be like the police state in EU. anyone who talks about globalism should never get an americans vote

classic14rider Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - Shiek, you are right to say that we should say "no" to globalization. Opponents to globalization are not for isolationism or against trade, but we are for fair trade in re-building our physical production capacity. To say "globalization is not going away," is to resign oneself to a lower standard of living.

Jul 7, 2008 - Edwards wants a one world government vote RON PAUL 2008!

NoMoreBlatherDotCom Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - This is a pretty funny video, with pseudo-populist Edwards urging Americans to accept their global fate, just as long as the president makes it a little more comfortable.Meanwhile, see 2004's "Bilderberg 'performance' key to Edwards VP pick":tinyurl dot com/2a9jnn (WorldNetDaily)

Jul 7, 2008 - There are not enough hair dressers in the white house for this man to be President. Put a mirror in the deep end of a swimming pool and Edwards will drown himself. Oh what a beautiful girl! oh what a Breck girl. Hitlery is more of a MAN!!!

Jul 7, 2008 - i love john edwards and elizabeth and the kids. oh and that's my house!

RoteHaareMann Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - to say you are against free trade is to say you are against all trade. if you restrict trade somewhat, you obviously don't like what its doing. and how could we have a lower standard of living if we are importing cheap and quality products from all over the world? trade isn't about countries, it's about individuals.

Jul 7, 2008 - Matt Simmons, the former energy adviser under President HW Bush, called for an end to globalization and the empowerment of workers.He says that we're facing the end of oil and that peak oil is already happening.Not to mention how globalization means legalized slavery and the brutalization of humans for crap products like Nike and Wal-Mart kids toys.No thanks, I rather support American organic farmers and shop owners than the Chinese factory that puts antifreeze in my toothpaste!

RenataVentura Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - the problem is the US government advocates free trade for the world, but doesn´t practice it! They say to other countries "lower your tariffs to american products - let us come in cost-free", but when it comes to the USA lowering its tariffs, it doesn´t!that´s what pisses people off in the third world! USA uses different measurements and different scales. It wants people to follow its economic policies, but the USA has never followed them itself!

Jul 7, 2008 - Globalization is just the natural progression of our race and human history. If we choose not to take part in it by handicapping our corporations from competing abroad, corporations will just move to countries more friendly to their business core. We're Americans, we're the greatest country on Earth, we're just going to have to compete harder for jobs and opportunities in a flat world.

Jul 7, 2008 - go to school, learn more, then come and talkGlobalization is here, face it you simpletons.YouTube IS globalization

ramonemeister Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - wow did you just read 'the world is flat'?

philipmontag Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - Yeah, it's a great book. Then again what does Thomas Friedman know he's only a Pulitzer Prize winner.

ramonemeister Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - oh i didn't mean it as an insult. i'm reading it in class i think it's great

ramonemeister Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - however, i don't agree that we're the greatest country on earth and i do believe we need to resist some aspects of globalization

PimPb1420 Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - BOOOOOOOOOOO!

Azprint Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - While I am still using youtube, I still think it is too bad. Globalization should not be here. People should stay different, in the pursuit of globalization we inherit environmental and social catastrophy. This planet can not handle it. Sooner, or later it will slap us in the face. And there we have 2 choices: 1. Destroy ourselves (Nuclear weapon) 2. Expand on the other planets.

CapitalistKiwi Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - Is it really necessary for a culture to change in the face of Globalization? Culture is accumulation of all the lessons of the past in the journey to a better life. So if McDonalds opens up in the Australian outback, surely they would serve wichety(?) grubs with Kangaroo burgers. What is exported is the system and how to run it in the local context.

ekimbell Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - exactly right.down the road after nwo and such, the pope will become one of the world leaders and we will either love him or hate him.there will also b a deceptively peaceful time in the world.i suggest not going to church, but searching God in ur heart for urself at home,the churches reputation should not b what it is.

deliciousmorton Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - people who say that globalization isn't going away are full of shit. globalization is on its way out.

butternuts23 Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - but he's not wrong

JME1282 Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - The movement against free trade is nothing more than xenophobia and racism. The anti-globalist left hates Westerners. The anti-globalist right hates Third World people. Neither the anti-globalist left nor the anti-globalist right is democratic, preferring that power-hungry, often-corrupt politicians decide for the people, rather than to allow the people themselves to decide what they want to buy, who they want to work for and where they want to invest.
