8. I hope it goes well, but I'm kind of skeptical

I hope that the Americans working for a Chinese company will be treated better than the Chinese working for American companies like Apple. (And of course I hope that those Chinese people will soon be treated better as well.) From what I've heard, it's essentially slave-labor over there.

I cheered on Clinton when he was passing NAFTA back in the early nineties. I remember when Al Gore cleaned Ross Perot's clock on Larry King Live that night, and I was happy about it. Clinton/Gore was my team, and my team was winning. How young and stupid I was. It appears now that NAFTA actually harmed the people of the United States, Canada, and Mexico, enriching only the international elites.

And China is one weird cat. They're supposedly extremely left-wing (Communist), but to me they seem more extreme right-wing (Fascist).

I really don't want to sound like Alex Jones, who I think is a raving lunatic, but it does sound like the "New World Order" is marching right on schedule. The new world order that President George H. W. Bush first talked about on September 11, 1990, eleven years to the day before the Twin Towers came down.



Okay, I'm starting to sound like a crazy person, so I must take my vitamin and get some sleep.
