There is an evil afoot, neoliberalism economics, the brain child of the globalizers.  It is neither new nor liberal, but the rebirth of the economics practices during the era of the Robber Barons.  It brought on the Great Depression.  Neoliberalism holds that the forces of the market place should be unfettered, viz., without regulations; and a second premise is that the roles of government are better fulfilled by private businesses.  Neoliberalism is the sophistry used to justify the ruling clique’s return to the economic conditions of the 19^th century.  It is just a deceptive sales pitch pushed by the corporate media and taught in a university system which has strong ties to the business community.  Don’t look to the globalizer’s theory, but to their actions and its consequences (as Naomi Kline has done in “The Shock Doctrine”).  It is the actions of a consortium headed by the big banks, and supported by global corporations and brokerage houses.  Through their WTO, World Bank, IMF, and the foreign diplomacy of the wealthy nations, over 200 nations have found it PRUDENT to sign free-trade agreements, which cover much more than trade.  These trade treaties--with acronyms such as NAFTA, CAFTA, AFTA, and MEFTA--require the dismantling of regulations governing their currency and finance, require opening the resources, land, transit, media, utilities, banking, manufacturing, and markets for foreign purchase and competition.  There are over 900 clauses in these trade treaties which permit the overriding of national and local environmental, commerce, labor, banking, and trade regulations.  This signing of a treaty is a continuation of the ruling clique/party’s historical course of action:  the ruler’s powerbase is tied to the business community and its press. A nation which resists globalization faces economic sanctions. If that fails there is the Marines and NATO.  The principle reason for the Iraq war is MEFTA, with Iraq being hung out as an example—the same occurred with Libya, and Iran will likely experience the same.  The corporate press inculcates a different explanation.  Foreign policy of the developed nations is tied on a global scale to the shadow governments.  Today’s new Robber Barons are not the monopoly capitalists & bankers like Rockefeller, Rothschild, and Morgan, but a much bigger corporate fish.  Their goal is to eliminate local competition, by establishing a world government for whom they are the shadow government.  The business ethics hasn't changed, only the size of the board upon which they play, for now it covers our planet.

There has always been a shadow governments.  Consider the words of Theodore Roosevelt, New York Times 1922: “These International bankers and Rockefeller-Standard Oil interests control the majority of newspapers and the columns of these papers to club into submission or rive out of public office officials who refuse to do the bidding of the powerful corrupt cliques which compose the invisible government”.  These shadow governments wants globalization, wants bailouts for the financial sector, and governments obeys.  Ours has guaranteed 23.7 trillion of bad loans and speculative vehicles such as derivatives, and we have 80 major military bases around the globe.  U.S. and EU’s domestic & foreign policies promote the type of globalization that the shadow governments want.  They wanted to expand the debt-based currency, so we went off gold 1972—interest payments go to the banks. The expanding currency must be used, and most has gone into shadow banking activities and loans.  Consumer, commercial, and government debts in 2011 totaled over $60 trillion.  Servicing government debt is now the second biggest item in the budget ($454 billion for 2010).  The manufacturing foundation of our economy has been eroded to below 10% of employment—fast-food workers not counted.  This has resulted in an imbalance of trade amounting to over $70 billion per month (more debt).  From 2000 to 2006 the dollar has depreciated against the EURO by 38%--which of course is also loosing purchasing power, but not as fast.  This drop in our dollar’s value keeps the foreign dollars here to buy new T-bills to replace the T-bills that have matured.  This expansion of currency has created for speculators the specter of “Panic”.  It almost caused a 2^nd great depression in 08.  What happened in Argentina, Asia, and Greece today, awaits the US.  The Robber Baron’s media passes the blame for economic crisis and strife on national government’s spending, but the shadow government is the ultimate cause.  Debit entails interest payments; crisis entails higher interest rates, foreclosures, and bargain purchases.  The shadow global government profits from these panics.
