1 thought on “Laura Ingraham: The wheels are slowly coming off the globalization train”
Dr. Charlie Baycroftsaid:
Well, Globalization was sold to people as a good idea.
As the story went, different regions would do more of the things they were “good at” and less of those they were “not so good at” and everyone would be better off because this efficiency would provide consumers with more stuff to buy at lower prices.
In reality, the goal was access to cheaper natural resources, labour and markets to enable corporations to become bigger, richer and more powerful.
Globalization is actually CORPORATE COLONIALISM..
The motive behind colonialism was always economic.
It was a way for the financial elites of more developed nations to access and exploit the natural resources and people of other countries.
The politically elite supported and cooperated with the financial elites to expand their empires and increase the government’s revenue by providing the military resources to prevent the “natives” from resisting.
Globalization was a very cunning plan because it enabled the financial elites and political elites to prevent the “natives” from realizing that they and their natural resources were being taken over by foreigners.
New Zealand was colonized by the British so that the financially elite could have access to its abundant natural resources and the labour of its residents and a market for their products.
As NZ developed and became more independent, entrepreneurial people began to manufacture products locally and people became less dependent upon imported ones and more self sufficient.
New Zealand was evolving from a British colony to become an independent and self-sufficient sovereign nation and its people were enjoying the social and economic benefits of this maturity.
That changed in the 1980s when the people accepted the Globalist narrative and the promise of more and cheaper products that were made in other places and often from our own natural resources.
The colonialists of the past provided beads, blankets and other “trinkets” to persuade the “natives” to accept the new order and the Corporate Colonialists have utilized the same strategy.
New Zealanders have received lots of cheaper disposable consumer products and most do not realize that the price was the loss of our lands, natural resources, indigenous businesses, self sufficiency, independence, prosperity and national sovereignty.
The acceptance of Globalization has not worked out very well because New Zealand is not a “colony” that is controlled by the Global Corporations who have become the owners of most of our natural resources, businesses and also our government.
