It seems we have found some common ground. This for me is where things get interesting. It is the beginning of a conversation about Globalisim, who benefits and who looses out and why, with what consequences and for who.
This is the start of a conversation about health care costs, patents, copyrights, about the way trade agreements are structured and who Governments are serving (ainât the people they are supposed to). Itâs a conversation about open boarders and who benefits from such a policy, as well as who looses out and what are the costs associated.
Chris is right about one thing, this is not a left right issue, even on the left there, the Bernie Sanders contingent would take great umbrage at Rachel Madows guest and his false song of globalism. They would point out how the banking system not only crashed under this decades long march, but how itâs not limited to just the US, with the EU and most of the developed world, with chaotic results for countries like Greece.
This is the conversation the Donald Trump supporters have been having for the past 18 months, while the left and MSM went off on itâs racist/sexist/homophobic/islamaphobic/xenophobic rant. Donât get me wrong, the right are not blind to the fact Trump is far from diplomatic. They too put their head in their hands and think âfucking hellâ when he calls Mexicans rapists and murders and as an afterthought says perhaps there are some good ones too, but they want immigration control, and they want subjects like sanctuary cities addressed. They too think heâs gone too far when he calls for a ban on Muslims, but they see whats happening with a flood a refugees in the EU and recognize the danger, they understand if there is a travel advisory to Pakistan that basically says âdonât go there because you are likely to be kidnapped or shotâ itâs probably a good idea to be really careful about who you let from Pakistan come to the US.
