Strange how the American body politic doesn't say "America bent on world domination" yet many Americans say "Globalization, get used to it". I saw an article on zdnet and the writer said exactly that. I wrote back to him...

To the second group, I say welcome to the global economy. If you want a sympathetic ear, you've got one in me. That said, you can choose to ignore reality, or you figure out what to do about it.

Now it has one, and if American companies are expected win against foreign competitors in a global economy, they can't be expected to maintain a significantly higher cost base with a minimally appreciable difference, if any, in quality of goods or services. Angering, isn't it? (I wrote back about having America raise the standards and quality of life for all around the world, rather than lowering the quality of life for us citizens here, also citing how much money people in these foreign countries make and how they lack the laws and protections we have...)
