Whether you realize it or not, you fall in one of the two camps. You are either a Patriot that puts America first or you are a Traitor that wants America to lose its sovereignty.

Globalist.

History has shown, nationalism produces nothing but conflicts. We need less of that in this world of high tech, nuclear missiles, and the likes.

Globalism works out great for the rich as jobs migrate to countries with the lowest wages.

No, because taxes aren't high enough on the rich. If you allow someone to be rich, then you give them power to do whatever they want, including shipping jobs overseas, and in the federal government's case give lobbyists tons of power over our government.

Look up tax rates during the pre-Reagan era and you tell me if today's taxes are high.

Allow someone to be rich?

Nothing says freedom like restricting how much money a person can make.
