Implying the corporations have the best interests of the people at heart.
America can't become an isolationist state, it has too much at stake. All it can do is pander to the crowd of nationalists and convince them that what we're doing overseas is just. Isolationism might be fine in certain instances of war, but in repairing a country, it doesn't help. I don't think you saw my statement from before when I claimed that nationalism might seem fine in certain regards as far as de-internationalizing corporation, but it's the cultural aspect of nationalism which is far more damaging than anything else. Nationalism tends to breed xenophobia and racism as we lay our problems on having "open borders" and "connections to the world". As though all our problems can be solved by just shutting ourselves away.
