Free trade generates political transnationalism.
Free trade without effective, democratic, transnational regulation will result in a rapid race to the bottom, in turns of wages, environmental protection and social welfare systems. People won't put up with it, and they will fight back in both progressive and reactionary ways. Transhumanists should help make sure that the movement to control global capitalism for human interests is steered in progressive directions, not just into Luddite Jihads. Things are happening very quickly now that the Cold War is over, and capitalism appears transcendent. There are already huge underground economies.
