Presented by Dr. Jeffery Frieden, Stanfield Professor of Government at Harvard University, at the 2019 National Security Seminar.

It's as if the man behind the curtain picked up all the manufacturing factories in the rust-belt and set them up in China, Pakistan, etc, and left the American worker without a future. Back then a factory paycheck could buy a modest home and leave enough to raise a family. Sad, now the rust belt has mass unemployment, dope, opiates- etc; unwed mothers, broken families, high incarceration rates, and steady increases in cancer.

"Today we have not only a candidate, but a President who has expressed quite clearly a disagreement with what he calls "Globalism" …" Which does not mean mere "globalization", but rather the "harmonization" of things like "rights", which will not work for the U.S., since the rest of the world is almost entirely against giving meaningful (as in the people in Government can't just revoke the rights one day because they want more power/control over the people) rights to their citizens (or they would have, obviously). Pretending it's "democratic" when it's really just "elitism", allowing the citizens to vote for some superficial "leaders" who don't actually try or have the power to do "the will of the people" (as we can see with "Brexit") is not going to so sneakily replace the Constitutional Republic of the United States, with some fascistic "Globalism" bullshit the transnational corporate elites (in general, it seems to me) would like. . Get over it, I suggest, Globalists. You're not going to get to play God without some blowback from people who don't want egomaniacal hyper-wealthy sneaks to be their virtual gods . . Pave the way for meaningful rights around the Globe, or try an almost Global governance scheme, sans the U.S. . . or, come and take them.

I have no issues with controlled, well vetted, and selective immigration. There IS, however, ZERO (rational) justification for ILLEGAL "immigrants" (aka: INVADERS) to be able to flood our nation - and, our "safety nets"!!!!!! A combination which is INTENDED to destroy our nation and economy is the combination of "open borders" and a public welfare system. Anyone who doubts that fact should read the "Cloward-Piven Strategy" ~~ a plan to do exactly that!!! When I was a kid, people who immigrated to the US spent 3 to 6 months in quarantine - being checked out for any medical or legal issues. They had to prove that they were capable of becoming self-sufficient; and, even then, had to have a sponsoring family who was totally responsible for helping that person or family "get on their feet." To earn their citizenship, they had to learn English, learn our Constitution, stay out of trouble, and be self-sustaining. If they even tried to vote prior to becoming a citizen, it was grounds for instant deportation. They came here because they wanted to become AMERICANS; NOT, because they wanted to import the problems of the country they left!!! When I was a kid, the US was the number one CREDITOR nation in the world; and, the average family could live a pretty decent lifestyle with just the father working full time. The country had some flaws (and some idiots); but, there was progress being made towards fixing the problems and curbing the idiots. Much of that was derailed by the slimebag pro-global governance elitists - the ilks of which had been instrumental in the rise to power of scum such as Marx, Hitler., and Mao ~~ as well as most of the other tyrants then and since. The VOLUNTARY cooperation of SOVEREIGN nations is "all well and good;" HOWEVER, the concept of any sort of "global governance" is ABSOLUTELY ABSURD!!! ALL government should be "from the bottom up," NOT "from the top down." ANY trade (or even conflicts) should be between ONE SOVEREIGN NATION and ANOTHER!!! If a nation's government betrays its citizens, those citizens should have the will (and the means) to self-correct those in power."Peace through strength" should not only apply to nations; but, to the citizens of nations.

This was an informative talk. However there is much left unsaid. All things being equal free trade is without a doubt the best way to develop economies. BUT things are not equal. The unfair trade practices which China has been the master of but by no means the only practitioner of has caused the transfer of wealth from the USA to countries overseas. These countries took this wealth and built bullet trains, new infrastructure and nuclear weapons some which are aimed at the USA. The USA doesn't have bullet trains, we have 100 year old collapsing infrastructure and have to spend money on defense to protect us from the weapons aimed at us. The USA rebuilt the entire world since WW II and still have 70 year old trade agreements with countries that were once bombed flat but now have space programs, subsidized industries, and restrictive tariffs against the USA. There was no mention either of the Globalists love of bureaucratic administrations that are not answerable to anyone. The Trans- Pacific Partnership would have established a large bureaucracy which would bind the United States to anti- USA decisions without Senate oversight which is required by the Constitution. The United States doesn't need to make a huge complicated 23 party agreement to have a trade pact with the country of Malaysia. Too many moving parts- Keep it simple.

kzbin.info/www/bejne/rJDYdZZ5e5iKppI the future of globalism is a one world government, religion and monetary system which will come about in the period called the 7 year tribulation after the Rapture. www.calvaryprophecy.com. With all the crazy things that are happening in this world God is trying to get this world's attention to the coming Rapture and tribulation. The 7 year tribulation will be the worse period in human history especially the last 3 1/2 years. For now the Spirit of God is holding back the full force of evil but after the Rapture things will change for the worse. If anyone finds themselves in the tribulation period it is their fault not God's so accept Jesus as Lord and Savior before it is too late.
