I blame the Clinton Administration for the mistreatment of the Soviet Union, as we did with Germany after WW1 and war became of it and we now are heading down that road and why Putin is in power. We as a nation need to rebuild a dialogue with Russia and get back to free trade with Russia. We should be working with Russia and China in world market globalization.
It is odd that we as a nation, the USA are still in the Cold War mentality state we are in. Still thinking oil is worth fighting over, with the age of solar and wind power and renewable energies and verge of the world having electric transportation by the end of 2030.
The idea is the big military complex of the idea of selling weapons in causing conflict and wars and destruction of infrastructure. The world would be better off with free flow of information, free internet, all democratized, free trade, individual liberties from a police state.
This is similar to what is happening with the treatment of Russia. When Germany was mistreated after WW1, it led to the USA becoming isolationist and nationalist 1918-1928, in that it led to the Great Depression and then WW2 with a pissed off Germany. Are we repeating this in our history with the electing of Trump and the backing he has.
The communist, Russia, and China have always been against European nationalistic view, which is prevalent in Europe today in the forms of populism front in England and the US. This must be stomped out to prevent another Germany, in which, strangely the USA is leading the trend in this.
Their attempts to silence the media, control speeds on the internet information flow. etc
The Christian right wants to bring back the crusades and have Christian globalization. The Muslims, in either form, wants to reign in Shiite or Sunni Muslim globalization. Russia and China want a socialist agenda around the world and are exceeding more than the others. You see globalization comes in many forms.
But this is not what globalization is about. It is about freedom of the people, freedom of flow of information, democracy, individual rights without to much of Law Inc.
