9. Get this through your heads: Corporations no longer need this country.

They are all looking to Asia as their future, they do not need this country or its citizens for anything, except to extract the last bit of wealth out of before they leave the husk.

The incipient Middle Class in China is larger than the entire population of this country, 300 million people.

India is not far behind.

New countries to plunder, and far easier to corrupt the governments there.

Who would you rather have as customers?

A hundred million people of a middle class that is rapidly shrinking as a customer base here, or a billion people overseas with money to spend?
