>"Freeing markets and marketing freedom
>
>in the new anti-American century"
>
>While our leaders cling to the ideology of free markets, spreading 
>freedom and fighting evil, disturbing reality-based data appears to 
>contradict their faith-based assertions that we are better off, that 
>freedom is on the march and that we are winning the war on terror. 
>While household income is now declining, productivity is steadily 
>increasing, meaning that capital, not labor, appears to be the 
>beneficiary of globalism.
>
>With global companies like Starbucks, McDonalds and Pepsi facing 
>boycotts and rising insurance costs abroad, could brand America lose 
>market share and go the way of Woolworth's and The Gap? So as we 
>stand tall on credit, thanks to our trading rivals, China and Japan, 
>what does it mean to be an American and what do we do about anti-Americanism?
