So this idea of global management means that our military is for hire
Edited on Tue Feb-21-06 09:47 PM by MichiganVote
that our ports are for sale

that our constitution is for rent

that our security is for naught

that our disaster preparedness is for shit

that our education system is for illegals

that our tax system is for the wealthy

that our treaties are for corporations

that our energy is for the elite

that our water is for environmental terrorists

that our national parks are for billionaires

and that our children are now enslaved....

to the rulers we cannot see, cannot speak to, and can have no representation among

Great, just fucking great.

5. Yes and no. Global management refers to the management of
the resources around the globe, principally oil and money, by mega companies who hide their assets and cheat on taxes. Globalization is the process by which this is happening re: removal of convenient trade barriers, money management, corporate / gov't contracts, information and its dissemination....you get the idea.

2. There are no nations, only corporations.
Lip service paid to national identity/national security by politicians just to keep the population hypnotized while treasury raided.

3. This whole thing has set me on my butt;
I now realize that the whole world is nothing more than Corporations that are running the world. Countries and boarders no longer mean anything. Dose this mean that the next war will be Corporations fighting for oil with hired military, or have I put my tinfoil hat on a bit too tight?:tinfoilhat:

4. Nope, you're right on target
Just remember to put "water resources" right under the "oil" item.
