Dennis Kucinich and Nader?

Both of them together? Does this mean Dennis is going to run for presidency on a third ticket? Haha, what strange bedfellows.. But I suppose not, maybe just to let more people hear more of his views, but more power to Dennis! Hope the Democratic Convention chooses Dennis.. lol

    Well, I have said once that Kucinich's trade policy needs some lessons in Economics 101. Obviously he doesn't see that the "3 million manufacturing jobs lost" means that those were 3 million Americans working in inefficient industries producing over-priced goods. NAFTA and the WTO make food, clothes and other consumer items accessible to more Americans. Make milk more expensive to save antiquated sectors? I don't think so.

    A DNC nominee (Kucinich, Kerry, anybody) and Nader on the ticket may be a good idea though. Splitting the liberal votes is what got the US bushwhacked after all. =P

    yes, i agree, but still if you look at it from a protectionist perspective, he is trying to 'help' the US workers. Well, afer decades of having the upper hand in world economy blabla globalization, US is having to rethink its role in the world economy esp with its diminishing authority.

    NAFTA to me, is highly detrimental for the south american economy and society imo, and only large TNCs benefit. But hey, i guess Kucinich is a populist..

    But then again 3 million is still 3 million too many, even if it's in inefficient industries if you base it on world economy. There's only so much that you can attribute an specialised economy to a particular country.. China and India are going to/currently having superior advantages in most industries than the rest, esp in cost.. *shudder

    ABB tho as you say.. hopefully..
