Degrees of Separation of Culpability. How the Plutocrats are carrying out a global mass slaughter.

[Speck Tater]

1. Face it. Historically, the global economy was NEVER stronger than...

... right after the Black Plague decimated Europe. Not only did everyone have jobs, but the labor shortage meant that wages got bid up and the standard of living skyrocketed.

Unemployment is mother nature's way of handling overpopulation.

The problem is not that the jobs were outsourced. That only changed who lives and where they die. It doesn't cause an increase in the global death rate. Moving jobs from country A to country B just moves some of the poverty of country B into country A. India gets some of our jobs and in exchange we get some of their poverty. There's no free lunch and the scales MUST balance.

From a global perspective, globalization and outsourcing simply means that Americans lose some of their economic privilege and have to share it more equitably around the world. The world is overpopulated, and SOMEBODY is going to die. A LOT of somebodies are going to die. We complain about globalization because we want the ones who die to be the little brown people in countries were they talk funny, NOT right here the good old privileged US of A. Our role has traditionally been that of exploiter of the world's poor. We are outraged at the thought that we might have to become part of the world's poor.

But faced with the choice of continuing to exploit the world's poor, or to join the world's poor, of course we want to preserve our privileged status.
