I now see, rather vividly, that American thinkers believe very strongly in a "stock society" where gains from capitalism can be shared with all and sundry. This mode of thought, very rational in most perspectives, may not take into account immediate history and the desire of most of those aspiring towards middle class status to get there without any further risk. WITHOUT ANY FURTHER RISK! So... I'm still not impressed by Walmart and I just shake my head and laugh when I hear your citizens clamor for Dubya to remove the troops from oil-rich Iraq. After all, fundamentally, as the honest know, the war was to prevent instability in a region with about ten percent of the U.S.'s future oil reserves. Right? Of course! Of course! So...
With an uninformed consumerist society as is evident today in the U.S. no one takes seriously liberal rants to "hands off" the resources of other countries, resources needed to feed the habits of many including liberals themselves.
