Re: [CPF0000] The globalization of COMMON, or is this the right direction? -- MIDRANGE-L

Joe,

You are getting way too serious about this if you spent a bunch of timerefuting a spoof from the Russian equivalent of The Onion.

And, you do have some valid points. And, you have some not so valid points.As I said, globalization is here. I am positive about it. Being that way, Ican work on finding ways for Americans to benefit. Yourself and Paul andothers are just being negative and naysaying against something that ishappening. Here is a quote I like the best:

"He's right. Which is why we must design the right public policies to keepAmerica competitive in an increasingly networked world, where everycompany - Indian or American - will seek to assemble the best skills fromaround the globe. And we must cushion those Americans hurt by theoutsourcing of their jobs. But let's not be stupid and just start throwingup protectionist walls, in reaction to what seems to be happening on thesurface. Because beneath the surface, what's going around is also comingaround."

While I might have missed the humor, it's probably because I've heard the
exact same thing said in complete seriousness by the global economists.And
you've repeated some remarkable gibberish already in this thread, so it's
hard to tell whether or not you believe this, too.
In any event, my points are valid, and you still haven't backed upanything
you've said.
