In regards to globalization and why I hate it, I've put up the following links:

this article is written by Cassidy, a New Yorker econ journalist.

In regards to Outsourcing, Cassidy has another great two-sided article. It's called "Winners and Losers: Is free trade really a good thing?" in the August 2 issue of the New Yorker. Both sides of the debate really hailed the article for its completeness. I highly recommend you check it out. I couldn't it find it online but I'd be happy to copy it for anyone and mail it. just let me know. I'll be taking it to SF with me because I think Ben and Kayvon really should read it. Though they might already know everything it says, I'd like to hear their reaction to this rather neutral way of approaching the topic.

For an opposing point of view, check out this article:

Finally, check out my letter to the editor for the UCLA paper (it's at the bottom of the page) to see my feelings on globalization in case anyone cares to read it.

Some will think that I'm very one-sided and I'm often even wrong, I know this, but such assertions are debatable and I make my claims because I've seen this shit first hand, on video, or have read about it. I don't just dig it out of my ass.
