The city is besieged by 40,000 labour, environmental and human rights activists, claiming the WTO puts too much emphasis on 'free' rather than 'fair' trade. Not since the Industrial Revolution has the workplace been so dramatically restructured. Globalization has been a triumph for the corporate giants and for e-commerce. But the explosion of international trade has also meant jeopardising jobs, forcing out local industries and an ever greater impact on the natural world. The scale of the Seattle protests took the world by surprise and was proof for many that it's time to re-examine the global economic machine.

  • @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 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.

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

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

  • 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

  • @chinasucksforever HA! HA!, know wonder the world is fucked with opinion's like that.

  • @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.
