    That is a shame. Countries used to listen to us because what we did worked. They see us spiraling out of control now and they want no parts of what we are doing

    Its amazing things have gone bad so fast. We don't have to be isolationist but we have to get past micro managing other countries affairs.

    The consequence of globalization is that we even care. I'm not saying go completely isolationist, but remove ourselves from so called free-trade, impose matching import-export tariffs and see how fast this juggernaut of an economy leaves the rest of the world in its dust.

    Hmmmm, the BRICs are the last big economy's not controlled by the bankster cartel.
    Hardly a surprise that the bankster pawn Obama's actions are not palatable to those countries.
    The BRICs are more in favor of free markets than the US.
