  • Globalization is not what most people expected. We thought this rising tide would lift all boats, but it hasn't. So has globalization failed? According to research, globalization can be redirected to improve the lives of people all over the world. But it will require us to think differently. #IHub #InternationalHub

    Protectionism is needed in some sense. South Korea is a great example. The country couldn't compete with any foreign companies after the horrific Korean war. So the government imposed high tarrifs on imports while investing in domestic companies so that they can grow enought to compete with foreign companies. And it did really work

      It's funny because most country has some form of protectionism. Even if you are allowed to set up shop at a country. If the other firms don't accept or do business with you. It is almost guaranteed you are going to fail.
      For example, if KFC decided to set up shop Vietnam and most businesses disapprove of it. Lets say chicken farmers who had most dealings of local businesses, decided not to sell to KFC corp. Now KFC has to import chicken from another place. It get hit by import tariffs and the chicken that arrives at Vietnam isn't even fresh compare to local businesses.
      Over the years most countries have been doing some form of protectionism while at the same time promoting globalization of their goods and services. The issue is each country's business scene is it own ecosystem. If a foreign company comes into the country, the business scene will have to ask questions like these: If KFC comes in with their new Texas style BBQ chicken, will that promote local sales of chicken? Will that also increase US tourism to Vietnam because of familiarity of taste? Certain foreign companies do compliment the business scene while others are just straight up competitors.

      You are aware that improving profitability and growth increases the quality of life for employees and the population as a companies supply chain also pays other employees. To top it off, companies have to pay tax in many developed countries. The more your companies earns, the more tax you pay. This improves roads, healthcare, police and fire services. Need I mentioned the other things taxes provide thanks to the “evil capitalist companies”.

    Just compare the wages of globalized jobs with local craftsmen jobs if your opinion about Globalisation is not settled .
    In a small system the one who breaks the rules is easily identified, and can hold accountable for that.
    Human nature is to overtake his /her competitors, just for the own advantage. Where a secure social system is missing there is no commitment of the individual to act fair. It's like the jungle. The believe in globalisation has led to elimination of the middle class and the drop of wages in general. What makes one believe the intensification of this system would improve their status quo ?

It's not valued and they just pay dirt wages and quality suffers. But inspections and quality control helps ensure buildings don't collapse before they are done. But in other countries they do collapse. This is a new discovery of what this problem is called. Thanks for making this video.

    Since the beginning of recorded history, tarriffs are used to make sure the government's laws are not disadvantaging it's own citizens. For instance, in the U. S., we have lots on expensive environmental taxes. Mexico has much lower taxes. If Mexico can ship goods the the U. S. without paying a coinciding tariff that covers the difference in taxes paid by the manufacturer, then only companies operating in Mexico will survive, by design. This issue has been around since Egypt and before.

      It's not rocket science. The U. S. Constitution gives the job of regulating international commerce to Congress. They are not doing their job. Free trade, is the failure to regulate. That's why the U. S. Industrial base is disappearing under international free trade agreements. The proof is in the pudding. It's history now, and no longer a debatable subject.

    I’ve read Adam Smith and Thomas Sowell’s Marxism and the Mickinsey article which this videos pulled data from and I’m also a CFA charterholder. The article calculated the 70% flat/falling house holds incomes using real income. Real income is a proxy for purchasing power which is what is meant by rising tides. Thus tells you nothing of the matter to do with rising tides. Also, the article goes on to state that this figure was effected largely by the 2008 recession which is a outlier in the data. When there is an outlier in data stats are called inconsistent and biased therefore erroneous! McKinsey has an agenda and is cherry picking data to found an entirely misleading argument that ultimately stifles equality. They do this to look like the good guy but in reality they are the bad doers. Don’t rely on others to form your opinions.

    • @c4call
      @c4call 2 роки тому

      Your argument doesn't really add up. Regardless of your "qualifications", the simple fact is that average spending power has gone down continually since 2008. You could easily base this on calculating a simple ratio if average incomes to average costs of staple foods, fuel, electricity, gas, home prices, etc. Very clearly, a growing percentage of Americans cannot envision upward economic mobility. The mere ability to sustain one's self in one's current situation isn't a good barometer of socioeconomic equality or inequality, the point of which is to gauge social STABILITY. If enough people feel the system is unfair and rigged, this leads to social instability and rises in crime and risk of uprising and revolution. The primary goal of many media corporations today is to do PR for the shareholders they share with other corporations. They emphasize and deemphasize as needed to keep people "feeling" that inequality isn't an issue.

    Well presented. The simple animations were a nice touch. That said, I wish there were more presented on strategies to fight the negative effects of globalization. Some of the best ideas were not even mentioned; for example Global Basic Income (aka "World Basic Income"), where a world-wide basic income (or "allowance") is internationally established and provided to ALL humans, across the entire planet. The idea may seem far-fetched now, but even the tiniest start would have a profound impact that would seriously fight the negative effects of globalization and inequality.
