France: Yet another nation turns against globalism: 80% see it as a job-killer

16. Too late. BTW that "inaccurate" poll shows opposition to globalization growing to 68% by 2012 if

you extrapolate the findings from 2009 to 2010. You might want to reconsider the label you put on a poll that supports the view that globalization is becoming increasingly unpopular.

The reputation of the Pew organization for accurate polling probably ranks a little higher than that of the Alliance for American Manufacturing. (This AAM poll may have been well done and 'accurate' but it would be nice to see the same results from a poll conducted by an organization that doesn't have a vested interest in the outcome of the poll. When a industry group releases a poll that shows that the government should do more for that industry, 'accurate polling' is not the first thing that comes to mind.)

The Pew poll that you so regularly disparage shows that opposition in the US to globalization was increasing rapidly from 2009 to 2010 and is probably a strong majority by now. Is that 'inaccurate"? Or is the overall conclusion of the poll 'accurate', but some of the internal poll findings are 'inaccurate' since you do not agree with them.
