Walmart and China
When Americans go shopping in Walmart they might want to recall the words of Maj. Gen. Zhu Chenghu of the Chinese People's Liberation Army. He threatened to nuke "hundreds" of American cities if the United States interfered with a Chinese attempt to invade the American ally of Taiwan. (July 2005 – Cheghu is still in office).
When Americans go driving they might want to recall the fact that 15 of the World Trade Center murderers on 9/11 were Saudi Arabian and that country continues to avoid its international responsibilities.
When Americans go golfing they might want to recall the fact that the grass is so neat and short because of the millions of illegal aliens that have been forced into this country by their corrupt and drug dealing governments in Mexico, Columbia and other places.
When Americans decide to invest in the ‘international’ economy they might want to reflect on the fact that most of the foreign companies worth investing in are working out of the United States – like Toyota, Siemens and others. They take American jobs, land and opportunity and drive American companies out of business.
That’s the thing, however, Americans don’t think. They don’t think that renting to someone is better than selling to them. They don’t think that going into business with another company or competing against them successfully is better than just rolling over and giving up.
Americans don’t think its bad, either, to send children to occupy foreign nations while their place of birth is destroyed.

1. Walmart didn't sell their stores to China,
but they are selling Chinese goods and not American goods like they used to boast about. Globalization doesn't care about countries or borders as these corporations are strong entities unto themselves. America itself is for sale to the highest bidders and corporations are behind it often with government approvals.
