FORBES OP/ED blasts the global market.

[Brian37]

So China is on a separate planet than America? Their communist government allows the private sector where Americas buy all that cheap crap they make we buy at Wal Mart. How is that not inner connected? China doesn't buy oil, America does not buy oil? Thanks for correcting me. I forgot open states and closed states are their own separate isolated planets that never effect each other.

I don't recall saying you were wrong about anything in this thread (other than calling the original article an OP/ED).

When did I say these countries don't buy oil, or that global markets are not interconnected?

No, you are still insistent on calling economists "experts"..... Well so what, ask one economist one thing they'll say it works, ask another economist the same thing they'll argue it doesn't and their view works. Calling economists "experts" assumes there is only one economic view, and that still ignores that our global economy is still intertwined.

And since we are intertwined oil matters on a global scale and as long as friend and foe fight over that, all  the different economic views worldwide argued by the "experts" are really only arguing for control, and still not taking into account short term gains for one population wont change the long term destruction to our entire planet.
