| Yes, one could say that gizmo, but the fact is this crap really began to hurt the US when Clinton and that Congress passed the NAFTA/GATT treaties. Since then, it's only gotten worse with Bu$hCo screwing the middle-class (and lower) in favor of corporations.
They've tried to make the term "globalization" sound like a good thing. Sort of like the term "downsizing" and "restructuring" used to be in the 90's. But we all know what happened when you got "downsized"...it was not so good.
Anyone who can't see the rampant corporatism (bordering on fascism) in the US gov't nowadays is either blind or fooling themselves. The vast majority of Dems are to be held complicit also, not just the GOP anymore.
Lou Dobbs the other night on CNN had much to say about this.
