6. and going downhill steadily,
"They use the "we have a global economy" as a ruse to keep our wages low, for outsourcing and insourcing our jobs, and for EXPLOITING the shit our of the rest of the world.... Its all about money, money, money, ... more profits at all costs," it used to be called GREED.

Look at the list of where the 500 global companies are headquartered.

1 Tokyo Japan 52 1,662,496
2 Paris France 27 1,188,819
3 New York U.S. 24 1,040,959
4 London Britain 23 1,054,734

I am surprised to see that Paris comes both before NY and London.

Bush's isolationism isn't going to help US companies in the future. If you nose around the foreign press you'll notice that more and more countries are simply by-passing the US.
