Having read the article and all the posts I'm deeply dismayed at the horrendous truth that confronts me.
It is apparent that humanity is doomed to "economic-slavery" by way of global corporate profit margins. The NAFTA was concluded solely to increase the profit taking for the major shareholders of the large trans-national companies.
To say otherwise is a blatant demonstration of ignorance and evidence of a total lack of education and historical perspective.
Obama and Hillary are right .... NAFTA should be renegotiated and totally "Reworked" .... only it must be done for the benefit of the workers in all the countries involved. Corporate board rooms always are ready to re-introduce 'Slavery' in any global location for the advantage of making $$$$ ... ever has this been so ...
We the mass world 'populace' are all in peril to the moneyed minions and evil individuals/forces who believe and practice methods of business that ensure that the "Market" is a salvation in and of itself and who believe that it is self-regulating ....
History has many lessons ... that so few have learned them is all to apparent here ... let us pray ....
From a corner of the north woods of Canada … Where reading the works of Spinoza, Newton, Hume, Locke, Voltaire, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Mary Wollstonecraft, Henry David Thoreau, Thomas Paine, & John Kenneth Galbraith is still considered by some of us an essential grounding in the basics of global reasoning and citizenship … and an exercise that gives pause and due consideration to avoiding any ill-educated reflection on the human condition….
