A Dark Side Of Globalization

"The attitude of the state towards capital would be comparatively simple and clear. Its only object would be to make sure capital remained subservient to the state."
--Adolph Hitler in support of capitalism

There have been numerous reports of the incredible destruction of China's ecosystem in recent years. This really isn't surprising given where we have come to in the global economy. Capital is more highly valued than people, something we have highlighted often. Not a very proud moment for humanity.

This 60 Minutes investigative report shows the environmental chain of destruction might often lead back to the United States. These are simply unimaginable heinous acts against humanity. This could not exist without state endorsement. It's really not overly dramatic to consider this as a greatest of state crimes against people.
