That's the problem in a nutshell. In the very short run, economic well-being is a zero sum game. Eventually, globalization might lead to more jobs in the grand scheme of things. People don't care about "eventually" or "the rest of the world". They have bills to worry about, and they don't care what the Third World countries want.
(Pet peeve. Third World technically means countries not aligned with either the US or Russia during the cold war.)
