Default Re: What moral attitude should we take toward Globalism?

[ QUOTE ]

The world is truly a cesspool of worthless humans, who breed too much, care little for civilization, for human rights, for higher ideals, or the long term future.

[/ QUOTE ]
Countries that are dirt poor tend not to care about "civilization" or "ideals". They care more about if they're going to eat that day. Protectionist policies perpetuate poverty (say that three times fast lol), so you are in effect promoting these characteristics.

[/ QUOTE ]
People aren't going to have enlightenment until they have enough wealth to care about something besides survival. This is socio-economics 101.
[ QUOTE ]
And finally, a resource war is coming that will be both serious and prolonged.

[/ QUOTE ]
Protectionism incentives resource wars. The better the ability to trade with people for resources the less likely you are to go to war for them.

The more technological advantage we have, and less industrial development the rest of the world has, the better.

[/ QUOTE ]
Yeah, that's why we didn't give boatloads of money to Europe and Japan for industrial development after WW2....
