Chapter II: Assessing Fifty Years of Turbocharged Globalization
Chapter II: Assessing Fifty Years of Turbocharged Globalization At this point the reader might ask if the architects of globalism care at all about the economic welfare of the hardworking people of Europe and America. The globalists, having triggered world-wide energy and environmental crises by facilitating Third World industrialization on a massive scale, are now foisting costly green policies on Europeans and Americans. The trillions earmarked to wage the climate change war will burden the de-industrialized Western economies with heavier taxes and mountains of new debt. The Western oligarchs’ global ambitions are pushing the middle classes down a path leading towards scarcity. The elites running the European Union and the United States claim they are defending the interests of their citizens, but the truth is that the EU and the US bureaucracies are merely part of the machinery designed to bring disparate parts of the globe into an economic, and later, a political union. The EU represents an intermediate phase of a much broader process of global confluence that aims to interlink the economies of Europe, North America and the Indo-Pacific region.
