>One spokesman for the corporate world described 'globalization' this way (roughly):

>A corporation finds a country where the people are extremely poor and so ready to work for very small wages which, nonetheless, represent good value to those workers. As that society becomes more wealthy and living standards rise, the corporation is forced to look for another place where the people are extremely poor. When they locate the place they close up shop in the former place and open up in the new place and the cycle starts anew. This is obviously a very good arrangement for everyone concerned.

Well it did - I knew I wasn't the only one who thinks this way. And that I'm not the only one finding texts that confirm this point of view.

As for buying stocks... I think gambling is more fair - at least you see your opponent, and you can use your eyes to find out how the game is rigged, and you always know how much does the house get. On the stock market, there's too much information you need to know to prevent loss. And with every transaction you have to pay the middlemenpersons some.
