Some label anyone who has a good word or two to say about globalization as a corporate shill. Galbraith is not alone on the left in believing that the postwar economy cannot be pasted back together, that globalization is irreversible. Robert Reich says the same thing: we can compensate the losers, but we can't bring back the very same jobs that went to China.

In fact, unless I misheard, Barack Obama has pointed this sort of thing out on more than one occasion.
