Global mess is not new

Bizarre Politics Reports:
The global mess is not new. The core of our economic storms was during the Clinton era when he bailed out a foreign country - Mexico and send hundred of companies to other lands including Ireland.
It's really about you in the global economic arena and even the Tea Parties ignore the real problems of our times. You been had by the best of them!
Entire towns were dying. Miles of main streets in major cities looked like third world countries. President Clinton came back after jogging near some of these streets in Washington DC itself and proclaimed prosperity. He passed both NAFTA and GATT trade agreements which were designed by the elder President Bush. He rushed to Ireland and promises to move 400 of our factories there to bail out Ireland's economy. While both parties contested many things they left this part out. The Repulican leader of The House Newt Gingrich joined hands with President Clinton in the passing of free trade. Senator Dole did the same while stating that his whole state seemed to be against it but he was going to vote for it no matter what.
They all ignored the empty factories and the miles of empty storefronts and office buildings in our major cities. They told us the U.S. was becoming a service industry economy. A few years before that, there were many articles how the U.S. people will have to find things to do because the computer age and the service industry will free them from hours of work. Many were freed from hours of work due to free trade because of all the full time jobs that were lost. The extra leisure came but it was called underemployment.
The scam of the century - Free Trade took over during the most massive dislocation of jobs in U.S. history.
Our sales call book that I carried with me for about twenty-five years with lists of all the top companies and manufactuers in my region and with many more nationwide is now a historical document showing the thousands of companies and manufacturers who went out of business. Once there were many companies in my region that employed 5000 workers or more and now when a company startup announces a 100 jobs available, it makes headlines in the daily newspaper. The big lie took hold. Another generation came without realizing what happen except they are finding out they will never make the living their parents did.
They should know that soon after NAFTA was passed, President Clinton intiated the first bail out and the bail out was to a foreign country- Mexico. Moving more than 4000 US factories to Mexico did not work. Obviously it did not stop the massive tide of illegal immigrants coming to America seeking economic survival. Apparently, there were jobs in Mexico that the Mexican workers would not take. President Clinton rushed $20 billion dollars to Mexico to save the value of the peso and the Mexican economy. He wanted more but could not get it. He sent more to Mexico via international money funds with the global financial community afraid of a financial fall out.
The American workers were never consulted on any of these matters let alone given a chance to vote for any of these measures - The Mexican Bailout was also a dud just as Presidend Obama's U.S. Bailout is a dud.
Nothing good will happen until someone somewhere reveals the major cause of our economic crisis - Free Trade that is not trade and Globalization that is being driven by powerful forces outside the will of the people is not a global economy.
Our economies based on making money on money instead of making things have faded away and it is time to get real about to restore the real free enterprise system from the bottom to the top.
It's really all about you in the global economic arena with you being you anywhere in the world . It's you in all the nations where the factories were moved to. And each time a factory or business is moved, a burn out community is left behind. Plus, you should know that the working poor class, the underemployed and the unknown number of unemployed can no longer support our false global economy. It is economic cancer
See about my own journey in the global economic arena
. After more than ten years into my advocacy, I now write about my own journey in the global economic arena that portrays the economic sins that led into the "Bewildered New World" and note too ....
