Re: WIKILEAKS: U.S. Fought To Lower Minimum Wage In Haiti So Hanes And Levis Would St
I never said that, nor implied that. You seem incapable of discussing this with any real grasp of the big picture. It's small "gotcha" and weak one liners with you.
I'll try one last time, but this really isn't for your benefit you're a true believer...
Governments, make decisions on what affects their country, businesses in their country and the people that rely on them push the issue. It's not "CORPERATIONS RULE LOL!" that's childish and if that's all you've got well... that's all you've got.
An example:
Here is the UK Government pushing to help it's business in other countries.
what you are doing is taking a situation where the US Government is acting to help US Business keep costs low to stay competative in a global market and turning it into some bizarre class warfare fight.
Bizarre because this isn't unusual behavior, it's par of the course. You just see a political opening to claim the US Government is acting on behalf of "EVIL RICH" people to keep themselves rich and poor people poor. This is sadly common affection for those like you, who live in a fantasy world of class warfare and if only... the world would be better" It's quite disgusting really.
Man. That doesnt sound like the free market conservatives usually uphold! But hey, thanks for proving my point that we are ran by corporations and that the US gov when it comes to foreign policy, really only cares about corporate interests! :lamo

An example:
Government leads exports push in developing countries - TelegraphJustine Greening, Secretary of State for the Department for International Development (DFID), will set out her plans on Monday for removing barriers to trade and helping UK businesses join the 'push’ for development in selected countries.
In a speech at the London Stock Exchange (LSE), Ms Greening will say that she wants to work across Government - bringing in the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills and the Foreign Office - and with business to drive economic growth in developing countries.
As part of her speech, she will outline plans to undertake a piece of research with the CBI, the business lobby group, to understand what could help business export more successfully.
