Oh well. Information overload. Let's break it down. We'll start with this.

You lost me there. When the Europeans discovered the Americas and stole the gold and silver from the indigenous people, that was globalization.
Is there a statute of limitations on international crimes? Shouldn't there be? Or shall every square foot taken from someone else at gunpoint be forever after a just cause for war?

You tell us you're American. Your forebears benefited from that theft. Are you buying land and giving it to native Americans in restitution?

Are the Asians good? D**n right. That's why we've imported so many into Silicon Valley.Including Indians, Lizzie Tudor's pet peeve.

I DO notice that NONE of the countries we were previously discussing outrank the US. Remember "Europe"?
