As an economy measures performance in terms of the creation of money, people become a major source of inefficiency.

Global competition is about winners and losers.

In the US, most progressives start to see the differences between internationalism and economic globalization.

An active propaganda machinery controlled bv the world's largest corporations constantly reassures us that consumerism is the path to happiness, governmental restraint of market excess is the cause our distress, and economic globalization is both a historical inevitability and a boon to the human species.

There is no visible sign that the current politicians in the US are willing to see the need for change.

There is a huge shift taking place in the global awareness in the last 5 years with strong views about globalization and the power structures of major corporations.

I think one of the most important skills of a local organizer of a local economy is an ability to put on a terrific street party.
