Quoted for truth.
Its amazing to me how many people are completely brainwashed by our corporate overlords.
Modern neo-liberal economic policy (globalization, or whatever you want to call it) is design by mega-rich corporations to make their companies more and more profitable, and to eliminate barriers to the movement of capital. If you have mutual funds it has been good for you, and that's fine, but don't kid yourself about what's going on. This is not about making the world a better place. It's about access to markets, plain and simple.
