  • Mr. Knox's class :D

  • kmtt why not show the whole video for free!!

  • you might be interested in our videos, they are about ecological economics

  • Not quite the truth about the 787 being built in S.C. you mean Boing is moving a second assembly line to S.C. That move is to defeat the unionized Washington plant, that actually pays living wages. Hey!!!!! what is the difference between a Boing assmebly line and a Rebock assembly line, You are aware that S.C. will be assmebling parts made in China, Italy, and Tawian aren't you. South Carolianens will be working for about half the wages their counterpart in Washington State will be earning,

  • Very informative video! The answer to Reagonomics, trickle=down (voodoo) economics, and unbridled capitalism and free trade is fair trade, education, and sane regulation on a national and global level to promote equity, justice, understanding, and fairness for all.

  • @ClarksonsinUSA We are retraing engineers to become WalMart Greeters now. What employment group is needed, will they retrain 50+ ladies who earned a meager living in the local minimum wage factory to become a nurse, or a radiologist, a lab technican, maybe. NO, NO, No they will not! There are to many 16+ graduating from high school to fill those jobs. I use healthcare as an example because that is the only job opportunity there is in the country.

  • @ClarksonsinUSA Hey what about the other 169,999, they are on their own: right! Why would you defend multinational corporations outsourcing your own countrymens jobs. There is a simple solution, we do not have to except the concept of globalization, that is government con job. The founders of our constitution established protectionist capitalism, not laissez-faire capitalism. They gave tariffs and duties as a means of protecting ameican workers from wage slave societies, and pay government.

  • I'm not totally against free-market economy however when it comes to taking down a country economy down and starving a country to death. i'm troubled.

  • i thing it's crazy....

  • Central Bank, Central Government, Central World Organization = Federal States of America, WTO, and UN. only way to save our nation is to repeal the laws that bind us to these negative bodies. get out of IMF, WB, UN, WTO, save our own nation first.

  • Restore free-fair trade & sustainable economics! destroy IMF & World Bank!

  • @marumito free trade and fair trade are opposite things. quit talking out of your ass

  • @radiofreak56 NO they're NOT separate things! U can Trade Freely & Fairly at the same time...not governed by Idiot Centralized Govt. controlled puppet companies that u buy your shit from... my ass talks alot & I'll even fart on your ugly face...IDIOT!

  • @marumito

    Isn´t ist, that fair trade operates within free trade, but tries to oughtweight at least some of the robbery within? As I see it today, almost any puppet Government today is controlled by idiot centralized companies, including the US and Germany, where I live.

  • @marumito

    Got my vote on that. But also destroy any private central bank like the FED or any other. The EZB is not much better. I agree in free markets to most extent, but the creation and control of money should be under democratic and independent control for the good of the people. In Germany there is a movement demanding a fourth power, apart from legislative, judicative and executive: the monetative. I would even go so far as to replace interest-rates by demurrage, to keep money in real eco

  • @ThePt73 Yes I also agree with you my friend! the Free market will control & maintain itself with the equal, Free & Fair participation of the Honest people. Not by Puppet Govt. controlled by Globalist. Trade & Cultural Exchange had been in existence ever since ancient times & it thrived. Only when these Globalist Interfered with it, that it got Fucked Up like it is now... so yah Free & Fair Trade Now!

  • Well in NC USA there were many Textile and other manufacturing jobs lost after free trade became realty..

    But were replace...... BY BIO tech and other high end manufacturing jobs...And we benefit from lower cost clothing and other low end manufactured good..

  • @ClarksonsinUSA If those jobs were replaced by bio tech jobs why do we have 1 in 5 unemployed, and a trillion dollar trade deficit. So the textile indusry laidoff thousands of workers and bio tech moved in and employed a hundred workers and you call that a plus for free trade.

  • @louiethegreater everyone I know has as good or better job than before the textile layoffs...Those jobs are not coming back ,all a reversal would do would increase the cost of of things like clothing...

  • @ClarksonsinUSA The jobs would increase the cost of everything, because we make nothiing. Everything on our store shelves are made in some third world county, its not just the textile industry.

  • @louiethegreater not true we dominate many industries....

    Commercial aircraft for one like the 777...........................­......Processor and software ,bio tech.........................O­ur manufacturing economy is larger than China and Japan combined, our total economy is larger than the next 5 nations combined.....All facts please check....

  • @ClarksonsinUSA What a conn job heres some we dont steel, glass, textile, electronics, auto, auto parts, paper, food, appliances, cutlery, building materials , nails , wire, steel pipe, copper bars, copper pipe, optics, plastics, this is only a few, you named a few. The ones you named is high production low labor, Bowing just built replaced their large assembly plant in Seattle with one in China, Intel just built a billion dollar plant in Vietnam. Bet you work for government, or an infristructur

  • @louiethegreater manufacture-ring in the USA is greater than Japan and China combined...This is a fact.......Japan is more comparable to the USA,it produces high end goods,Chinas produces very low profit goods....Good for its customers ,bad for China....

  • @Cl You mean bad for Chinese workers, but good for China. China offered its peasant population to multinational corporations as cheap labor. The Communist Chinese Government is doing quite well, and the well connected investers in China is doing well off the backs of the peasant population. If you call that good for the consumers, than you have a very low, low, low sense of justic, and you are bankrupt of any sense of justic. Wall Street is doing quite well off the backs of chinas peasants also.

  • @ClarksonsinUSA Your profile says you are a machine operater. If that is true you will be needing a job and soon. I live in Ohio and machine operator jobs are non existant. They still train kids in the local community colleges to be machine operaters, but that is just so they can recieve the government money. I had the unemployment office check for the number of jobs in the machine tool trade and it was only 6,000 jobs, none created, just covering retiring people.

  • @louiethegreater move to the JACKSON AREA its in southern Ohio, Pillsbury has a huge food prepossessing plant....The pay is good and benefits,many of my dads family work there......The more you can do to more you make....

  • @ClarksonsinUSA Jackson county has a 11.4 % unemployment rate, which actually world translate into about 25% unemployed, if one corrects the DOL spin on unemployed people. So if jobs are that plentiful in Jackson Ohio why would unemployment be 25%. I just recieved a email from Ohios new governor that Ohio has lost 400,000 manufacturing jobs, through outsourcing, would that be those low profit jobs the chinese are preforming for .57/hr now. Who is making the difference in labor costs.

  • @louiethegreater well to fair,some people will always succeed,you have to stand out in a positive way for employers...

  • @ClarksonsinUSA So standing out in a positive way, gets you a job. What about those other folks who will not, or can not, or do not have the personality traits to enhance their presence. Your example is typically out of the globalization handbook. You bow lower than you peers, is that the image you suggest others add to their portfolio.

  • @louiethegreater LOOK .....When we are looking for a job,the employer is looking for the best person available its that simple.....If you don't want to work ,live with your parents..

  • @ClarksonsinUSA Did you know, that the more unemployed americans, the greater the demands employers can make on employees. Some people has no pride, they are willing to jump through hoops, for a job. The are just prideless people who do not think beyond the friday paycheck.

    Industry loves them, they are like robots, they do anything, they will work in any enviroment, breathe any air, contact any toxic chemical, gladly work in unsafe envoroments, simply to have something to toil at.

  • @ClarksonsinUSA You are aware that Boeing moving a second assembly line to S.C. is not even remotely the same as building the 787 in S.C. The only reason they are moving a line there is because S.C. will work for about half the wages, assemblers do in Washington State. Another question for you is there a difference between a Boeing assembly line and a Nike assembly line. The profits on a pair of Nikes is just as great as the profit on a Boeing 787, percentage wise.

  • @ClarksonsinUSA Hey Clarkson, ---- Gordon Gekko is headed for your state, sounds like your kind of man. Make sure you vote for him.

  • @louiethegreater you should try to live in the real world, Gordon Gekko is fictional charter..

  • @ClarksonsinUSA Hey, Gekko is---- but, Romney isn't-- he loves subtracting jobs from the U.S. and adding them to China. Bankrupting businesses and passing the cost on to taxpayers. Fits right into you business model doesn't it. You are a Chicken Rooting for Colonial Sanders.

  • @ClarksonsinUSA Hey why don't you send me some videos of all those abandoned textile factories. Why is SC among the top 10 states in job loss, why is 19% of SC on foodstamps. Why does SC have 10% unemployment( actually more like 30%). Why does S.C. workers earn $8000.00 less per year than the rest of the country. You lost 1000s of textile jobs, but gained a few hundred Boeing jobs, so what, that does not help the unemployed textile workers.

  • @ClarksonsinUSA I think you miss the point that the industries that employ people are gone. The high tech automated industries are still here, but they do no employ people. Do you approve of wall street being driven by cheap asian labor. I remember when a CEO would announce that his company was going to move off shore, the next day the stock of these companys would go wild, some as much a 20% gains. That is because investers knew that profits was going from 20% to 300% due to cheap labor.

  • @ClarksonsinUSA Yes those jobs are coming back. Soon ameicans are going to realize that they are being hoodwinked by free trade. If someone like Donald Trump is elected ( who promises 50% tariffs) on Chinese products you will see those industries race back to the U.S. If all your peers have better jobs, than you have a very limited group of friends. Just stay alive, the fate of other americans will soon come to rest on you. Remember when only low skilled assembly jobs were being outsourced.

  • @Clark I remember when it was only low skilled assembly jobs that were being outsourced. Skilled labor did not support them, of course 5 years later high skilled machinist and tool and die jobs were being outsourced. Than mid level management jobs were massively eliminated, than high level managament was eliminated. Than engineers were terminated, than HR personnel was not needed, electricans, and maintance were no longer needed. You live in a very limited community, but sit tight you are next.

  • @ClarksonsinUSA How do you know you benefit from low cost clothing and other labor intrensic industries, you have no american made examples to compare the cost with. Once our industry is gone thay can charge anything they want. They only keep the cost low enough not to trigger a tariff response from the american people, but their profits have gone from 20% to 300% off the backs of labor and enviromental regulation.

  • @louiethegreater as a percentage of income American family's spend less on clothing.... Not all American textiles companies have gone out of business,Unifi as my example...As I said earlier American manufacturered more goods by dollar amount than China and Japan combined..Mostly high end,high profit goods.....How many Chinese cars,air craft,do you see for sell in the American market....

  • @ClarksonsinUSA You are saying that the employees of the textile industry were given bio-tech jobs. Don't know exactly what you mean by high end manufacturing jobs. Does that mean highly automated, high production jobs that do not need labor. NC lost 170,000 manufacturing jobs, are you going to attempt to tell me that she gained that many bio-tech job. Soon I am assuming you will explain what high end mnaufacturing is. Boeing just closed Seattle Plant, moved to China. Intel just built in Vietnam

  • Globalization allows the corporations that produces goods and services the most efficiently to mass produce high quality, low cost goods and services..............

    Average people live better, eBay for example brings buyers and sellers together...

    Its a win win,I have 7 children and this global economy has been good for us...

  • @ClarksonsinUSA What elements of globalization, produces cheap goods. Cheap labor does, lack or regulations does. So heres what you are proud of .20/hr for third world peasant and a poison enviroment for their children. Arent't you just a little ashamed of your selfishness.

  • @louiethegreater you seem to be over looking the obvious ,no one forces them to take those jobs...................

    It a chance to earn a income ,it is what it is....

  • @ClarksonsinUSA If a unemployed mother had 5 statving children at home, and she turned a trick for 20 bucks, to feed the kids, that would be a voluntary exchange also. Twenty cents an hour is better than statving is that what you are saying.

  • @louiethegreater tellme what kind of pc are you using to surf the internet?????

    Corporations have brought us a much greater standard of living world wide..

  • @ClarksonsinUSA So are you saying that you don't mind if multinationals poison your enviroment, and I hope you are one of the first ones to work for that .20/hr. wage that you don't mind making the products we use.

  • @louiethegreater most multinationals abide by local local laws.......................

  • @ClarksonsinUSA If there were no law against poisoning your neighbor, would you wilfully poison them anyhow?

  • @louiethegreater sounds like you have made up your mind on this subject....

    Well I'm off to church and then a 30 mile bike ride with my wife and twins on our

    Diamond Backs..

  • @ClarksonsinUSA Yes after thirty years intense observation, I have decided. It is not what it is.

  • @ClarksonsinUSA Clarkson I am not a socialist, I am a capitlist, don't confuse globalist with capitalist, it appears you are a globalist.

  • @louiethegreater Globalization and capitalism go hand and hand,the best capitalist will dominate globally in their industry... It is what it is...

  • @ClarksonsinUSA No: you are wrong, globalization is a political plan, designed to produce the New World Order. Capitalism is strictly economic. What we are watching is globalist using our military to produce a safe enviroment for globaization, capitalist will run there, because capitalist, as of late considers themselves to be citizens of the world, instead of citizens of any one country. America will rapidly become third world if that continues.How will that effect you?

  • You are going to Miss the Holl Thing !!!?? Just Look at Their Faces which FULL OF GREED!!? How about taking your Asses out into Market and start Producing something. Inventing something. Growing something. Helping Other Humans... GREED IS EVERYTHING TO YOU !!!??

  • When are you going to Change this!!? When Miljons and Miljons of people are Dead!!? Wake UP before its to late. All the Bee's in Nature are dieying because of amound of GEN. Manipulated sheet that is out there!!? Research... Say No to GEN. Say No to Radiated Fruits and Food. Say No to Poisen...

  • @skilo837 sooo how does that still help you? you think some mutual assured destruction is good?!?! what a dumbass lmao

    /you obviously havent thought your cunning plan all the way through.

  • Globalization is going to happen whether we like it or not. It's actually almost a "natural" progression of the world's economy. As an American I don't really like it because in bringing "up" the 3rd world it's going to somewhat bring "down" the 1st world. Globalization sucks for America but let's try to make the best of it because it IS going to happen whether we whine about it or not.

  • I sure hope not. That would make us a rouge state. In fact I think the US is a rouge state.

  • chinasucksforever, You do not understand that Microsoft is not American thing but Bill gate's thing, do you?

  • @mingalabaa u got it Corporations have no loyalty to any country its all about increased profits without regard to human rights and the environment

  • Infosys is worth 1.5 Billion dollars? Please. Microsoft makes more than that in a month, maybe even a week!

  • I worked in textiles in North Carolina,for 17 years before losing my job due to the dropping of tarriffs...But it worked out okay like the goverment said it would.

    I have a better paying job , with a Israeli company in a near bye town..

    The cost of clothing is cheaper now ,than I have ever seen it..

  • All you need now is a circus and a little more bread and tv to be in blist!
