>The last 40+ years of globalization have raised more people out of poverty than at any other time in history
This claim is a prime example of the cargo cult pseudoscience that's in question here. No causal relationship is established between corporate globalization and it's just assumed as an axiom that "we must be responsible for it!". It totally ignores the factors of technological progress, decolonization and self-rule, as well as the efforts of countless NGO's. It's not just wrong: it's horribly misleading.
