Bizarre Politics Reports:
Can not leave free trade out of Wall Street protests. In fact it should be part of all discussions related to our economic and jobless crisis
Following The Rationale .com article mixed with editorial art by Ray Tapajna titled - Can not leave free trade out of Wall Street protests
Free trade is core of the problem. It can not be left out of any discussion in our economic social lives.
Unfortunately, as consumers, we took the dangling carrot of cheaper imports leaving Wall Street to have their way with us. Once upon a time, the stock market rewarded companies who were able to hire many workers while being successful. The value of their stock grew. In the free trade era, workers became a cost reduction item and the stock market rewards companies that cut workers or moves jobs to cheaper labor markets and economists etc. label this as an increase in productivity. This translates to fewer workers on the job.
The convenant between workers and employers has been broken. Workers are traded as if they are just commodities and not human beings. Free trade as turned into a modern adaptation of the slave trade where slaves were the property of plantation owners Who would think a black President would promote something like this.
The convenant between workers and owners is broken with free trade denying that workers have ownership over the work of their hands. Workers are just another commodity to be traded on a global block where they have to compete with one another for the same jobs. Workers are just tools to be used in driving globalization and free trade. At international money meetings, Pres. Obama calls this the New World Order. It is really a New World of disorder, Manuel Castells predicted the coming of The Bewildered New World years ago, Katherine S Newman wrote about it in her book - Falling from Grace in 1988. So, nothing is new. Only our attention spam is.

Many have gone through a cultural shock not knowing what they have to do to fit in the process of free trade controlling their lives or how to adapt to the new economic culture that makes so many things temporary.
