Kyros Re: "evil plot" Your post supports a strongly held opinion I have about the pro-globalism politicians and the political economists of the Greenspan sort, that they are all traitors of the worst sort.

I'm sure that they would completely agree with your distribution of winners and loosers. But your main loosers are THEIR OWN COUNTRYMEN, working folk in my country and their own, their very neighbors. That is the very dictionary definition of "traitor", that is a person who advances the intrests of outsiders to the detriment of his own countrymen. We have hung men for less and may again.

And I do find considerable fault with one element of your distribution of the pie. You list as "small winners" the "working classes of the developing countries". Now an economist would call any place with electric power in the capital city a "developing country". But outside a very small number of countries the only workers who will benefit are some of those in the large "lowest cost producer" nations. Indeed, in my book that is maybe the worst aspect of the scheme, the widespread damage done to the working classes in literally hundreds of countries, the places that are just bypassed by the whole scheme.
