Which of the free trade agreements and IP and copyright rulings have hurt the masses, and which have helped? Which economic policies of globalization are helping Ireland, Portugal, Italy, and Greece?
The folks passing those agreements are the "elites" by any stretch of the term.
- gonvaled 10y agoThe trade agreements are not to blame: they have increased trade, which should be good for everybody. The opposing force, making globalization unfair for the masses, is unchecked capitalism, which has increased inequality by allowing financial elites to concentrate capital. Trump, May et al are not goint to put any fight against inequality, so you will be surprised how little borders are going to help the poor.
