So we have to give up our position as a world leader, a nation of higher standards of living....to become like the 3rd world countries...to level the playing field...to take away our power to fight back. Will finish the video, and I may find I am wrong.

But they have to bring down to make the other poorer countries richer. Is that too outspoken? Too blunt?

My question is how did they get our Dem presidents on board? Unless the corporations are already the boss.
