We’re Just Like Them

When the USSR formed in 1917, all investment left the country, leaving it to pursue agriculture and manufacturing and services managed by the government bureaucracy.  It limped along for decades, ran out of money and folded in 1989. The USSR allowed its satellite countries to become independent again.  Like ancient Rome and like Britain, France, Spain and other aspiring colonial powers, Russia could no longer afford to control its “colonies”.
That left Russia as a one-party socialist republic.  Russia looked to its oil and gas and simulated some forms of corporations to export.  The US approach to trade with China prompted China to open its own corporations under Chinese government control.  Other communist countries did similar things.  So, now even communist countries have some semblance of a private sector, albeit under government control.  It has allowed them to pay the bills.
In the US, the government bureaucracy grew to become a socialist republic, took control of corporations’ ability to operate profitably, so these corporations moved their manufacturing operations to other countries with cheaper labor and no regulations.  Then the US government began to take over entire industries like lending, open US borders to immigrants and created systemic high unemployment to depress wage growth.
The political tension in the US today is about the US economy and whether or not it will ever improve from its current state or continue to decline due to US government policies. 
In years past, countries charged tariffs on imports to protect their “favored” industries.  But “free trade” has changed all of that.  In addition, US corporations were hesitant to open operations in other countries, because they were vulnerable to corrupt governments and civil wars.  That is apparently not a problem anymore. 
What happened is UN Agenda 21 based on the global warming hoax.  Now most countries are bankrupt and weakening as planned. We need to quit the UN before it’s too late.
