Just thinking here on this Thanksgiving, trying to find at the local video stores in Israel Charlie Brown's Thanksgiving special, and a striking thought occurred to me, as Mumbai, formerly Bombay, is under terrorist attack and Thailand under military order.
We are in a global and union-free economy. Two issues that well meaning individuals the world over have been trying to address.
But what if in the global recession, the terrorists and well meaning individuals drive away global industry and leave a vacuum in its place. These former stable countries will implode, as we are seeing now in Pakistan.
But it will probably make labor and unions stronger in the home country as demand for them increases and averts a depression, which in turn make people forget the plight of the people in the third world and have the well meaning people termed "extremists" or "nuts" as they are usually known as.
Oh, and I found Charlie Brown's Thanksgiving special on YouTube.
