Stopping globalisation ???
Its a shame you dont understand the world Paul.
No one is going to role back automation. Let me let you into a secret - machines and computers now do the work - the working man is very last millennia.
The industrial output of the USA has quadrupled since the 60s, but it employs a third of the people.
You really are the most frightful hypocrite. Tell me where you live again ? And why ?
The global movement of goods and services means that the market dictates where goods are produced.
So you get to live where the girls are cheap and plentiful, and your earnings go a long way. It also means that even the poorest citizens of the USA have cheap food, cars, consumer goods etc.
FFS stopping globalisation. That really is the most backward and idiotic idea. Trump is the arch capitalist - the idea of him restricting US companies from making profits really is quite laughable. So US companies are going to see their costs rocket, investors in US companies are going to see their portfolios destroyed, US consumers are going to pay more for food, consumer goods, clothes, cars, actually just about everything.
Tell me Paul do you think Mr Trump will be a popular president when he sets about "stopping globalisation" ?
Dont you see the parallels Paul ? Populist leader with a bag of bogeymen to blame. The Chinese take the jobs, the Mexicans do the raping, the media rig the election, the Washington elite are corrupt etc. He pulls the levers and you leap up and down in a frenzy of righteous indignation from your cosy home in Eastern Europe. Its fucking pathetic.
