And with the present rate of unemployment, I won't find a new job either. The liberalisation of international trade enables all nations to make the most of their cost advantages. That's why you can pay us a mere fraction of the wages you'd have to pay your own, male labourers. And we have to manufacture your shoes, clothes, electrical goods and computer chips under forced-labour conditions. The fact that this is also causing the jobs in your own countries to disappear is of no concern to you.
Capital has no home country.
The liberalisation of the international capital flow will lead to an optimal utilisation of the determinants of production. Financial speculation and currency manipulation has caused innumerable firms there to go bankrupt, with the result of millions of people from one day to the next being deprived of their livelihood. We, too, are surely going to catch it. Technological innovations will compensate for the ecological drawbacks of the present system of production. The devastated environment cannot be restored through technology.
