Commanding Heights: The New Rules of the Game

Posted on by

The last installment of this really well made documentary on Globalization. When I was young, and stupid, I believed in the miracle of Globalization. Now I see it for what it is, global governmental interventionism using the protocols set forth in Keynesian Economics but calling it Hayek Free Market-ism

I’ll write a review about the documentary and my thoughts on Globalization later.

    Have you seen “The Power of Nightmares?”

    Quite good actually.

    Have you seen “The Corporation”? http://www.thecorporation.com/

    It’s a free download, and the part that comes to mind when dealing with globalization is how the World Bank backed privatization of water in Bolivia instigated the water crisis and massive rioting.

    @SerpentMage: Thanks for the tip, I’ll take a look at it later.

    @Sherry: Thanks, I’ll take a look at it after SerpentMage’s recommendation!

    I just went to trader mike’s site and his theme now looks exactly like yours, Tom.

    For a split second there I thought I went to NMT.

    Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery?

    I watched all three parts… Yes 6 hours…

    Wow I REALLY liked the last part. And I completely agree with it.

    As Bill Clinton said “trade is a necessary to world peace.”

    If you want an example of this look no further than the EU.

    @Sherry: You should make a comment and let him know that you confused his site with NMT.

    @CG: Yes, trade is necessary to world peace, Free Trade! What we have here is managed trade with the WTO, IMF, etc. Its no where near Hayek’s Free Trade mantra.
