So, corporations that take advantage of incredibly cheap offshore labor and services are socialist? I'm sorry that you don't approve of the result, but it's just hard-core capitalism in action on a global scale, driven only by greed. The intent of the capitalists is to make as much profit for themselves as possible - no socialism intended. I do like that it takes income from fat, lazy, overpaid Americans and puts a fraction of it in the pockets of poor third worlders, but socialism it is not. If it were socialism, the greedy corporations wouldn't be allowed to make the obscene profits they do by exploiting this cheap labor. The lions share of the "wealth transfer" goes to the corporate profits. If the corporations could use outright slave labor, they would - hardly the socialist ideal!

As I recall, you also considered fascism as a "left wing" ideology, and Hitler as a "lefty"! You've certainly got some truly wacky ideas!
