As the tag line goes from the movie Cool Hand Luke, "what we got here is failure to communicate" even in a world of instant communication. Worst yet, there is communications by rank. It seems the facts are encased in a language by elite groupings. It is obvious workers have no voice in the process relating to the workday especially related to Free Trade which is the tool of Globalization.

There is a vast population missing in action from any kind of real reporting.

Hurricane Katrina exposed this void in New Orleans where a vast under class resided with very little discussed about an obvious silent depression that existed there.

Hurricane Katrina exposed it but then the matter was covered again with statistics that do not match up with the streets of USA in New Orleans or across the USA.
The rest of the world sees this and discounts what is called the American Dream. In other places while the U.S. fights for so called freedom, many can not find a way to make a living in the structures, the U.S. proposes for the sake of freedom. A cab driver in Chicago told us he chose to be a slave rather than having to kill someone. This is the crux of the problems of the world.

USA communicates a world that does not exist even in its own land and trys to pass on this fabrication to others and they know better.

A massive Populist movement is rising up in South America challenging the elite U.S. ways of doing things. The Populist wave is flowing over many lands now and merging with others that were in the past distant cultures and societies. Now they are uniting in a way by just saying no to the U.S. push of Globalization and so called Free Trade.
Even the term Free Trade is a non-existent term since is not really trade as defined and practiced in the history of the world. Today it is about moving production and factories from place to place seeking the lowest levels of cheap labor.

And Expore the lost worlds in the Globalist Free Trade Flat World as presented by the elitist communicator from the New York Times - Thomas Friedman. He takes the obvious and covers it with his "communications by rank" changing the obvious to fit into the pattern of Globalization.
