HanzoSan's Journal: Globalism

This is the first time I've even tried this Journal thing, but I have a rant. Why do people who support a Global Economy also happen to be the same people who are against a Global Minimum Wage? or a Global Currency? As if we in the USA with out inflated economy, and out expensive dollar can ever hope to compete with the third world?

Get a fucking clue people, the only way we can have a fair competition is for every country to follow the same rules we follow. We need a Global Currency, we need a Global Minimum Wage, and we need some sort of Global taxing system so companies cannot move around to avoid taxes without getting taxed each time they move to another country.

I'm all for helping the economy, but big global companies and big government do not help our economy or our world. Globalism leads to big government, big companies growing bigger, and unstable enviornment for small businesses.

If anyone wants to reply to this you can, and I'm not against Capitalism or Global Economy, I'm just against the way its being done, right now its being done and theres glitches in the system, rich CEOs collect the difference between converted currencies, they use the difference between currency to produce "slave labor."

So its ok for people in other countries to get robbed of their fair wage so the CEO can be richer? Its ok for us to be robbed of our jobs so the CEO can be richer? Who is really winning here? Not any of us.

Most people who support a global economy

are opposed ot any minimum wage, taxes larger than the absolute minimum, etc. And I think most of them really assume that the USD is a global currency :) At any rate, if our dollar can't compete, most of us would agree it simply needs to be better managed. HTH.

Oh, and while I'm at it,

[jcast]

most of us are so much for competition, we believe counries ought to compete to provide the terms that bring the most jobs to their country. So, we don't have a problem with companies shopping around to get the best tax rates :)
