@Salladsdressing To put it in simpler terms, globalization is very simple: it's a way of enabling larger-scale monopolization. It's a natural process for any system based on trade: no business likes competition, and all businesses need to grow at any cost, just to survive. The end result is monopoly. Globalization is simply the process of monopolies and large cartels to grow past national borders. I think you'll know just what exactly monopolies entail.

@Salladsdressing Insult is not a form of argument. Your understanding of economy is very common, and very mislead. It's based on idealistic notions, it ignores reality of what it does. I think if you know anything about history you'll that this is nothing new. When we talk about virtues of free market, we make a lot of idealistic assumptions, and we're mostly not even aware of all the evils that come with it. It's idealistic just like communism or monarchy. It's nothing new.
