By implementing new ethically principled standards in a "New Global Economic Policy Rewrite," we will transform present Zero-Sum Win-Lose economic policies to mutual win-win economic policy relationship equations for all economic classifications worldwide. Then, in the mid and long term everyone will be economic winners. It is high time we trade in existing zero-sum Win-Lose economic policies for bottom to top mid-term and long term "mutual economic prosperity."
Global economic policy allows unbelievable inhumane treatment of human beings in the existing economic policy relationship environments. A typical example next door is the maquiladora mess along the Mexican and U.S. border. Corporations' move manufacturing there for the tax and production cost advantages but never concern themselves with the infrastructure living standards needs of the dirt cheap Mexican laborers. For decades, they have been living in extreme health threatening conditions. Another typical example next door is the major economic plight of the corn farmers in the Chiapas, Mexico area. This is a case of rich land and poor people due to the leveraged trade advantages of foreign corporations. Many local economic communities do not even have a subsistence living due to unethical and immoral economic policies.A comparison of all the major present day economic policies will demonstrate an astounding difference in the ultimate results across all economic class sectors. Under the existing economic policy scenario in the mid-term and long-term even, those at the top will lose; under mutual win/win, everyone will begin to win in a wholly sustainable and stable global, national, and local economic environment.
There are some 37,000 global corporations controlling 2/3rds of the world's economy, and representing four fifths of all world trade plus, most of the foreign investments! Additionally, many of their investors are winning big time, under their exploitive Zero-Sum Win-Lose Economic relationship policy equations. They are winning in a non-competitive environment which they created through their powers to make both public and private economic policy. This global economic relationship equation is not a so called, "Comparative Advantage," relationship environment, it is a wholly non-competitive unjust exploitive catastrophe. Of course, all those investors that fail big time will be bailed out by the tax payers through the International Monetary Fund (IMF).
Over 5 billion human beings are wholly reliant on global and national investment, finance, and economic policy making for their continued sustenance. What we must have is: mutually beneficial and prospering public purpose in our national and global investment, finance, and economic policy making. We don't need policies purposed to further empower Transnational Corporation's in their exploitation of the powerless!
From the standpoint of your politico-economic class interest information needs, rate the press. Rate the Congress and the Executive on how well they represent your economic policy interest's and vote accordingly. These economic policy issues should be used as the seminal voting issues. On these issues, if office holders or candidates are against your interests' and against campaign finance reform, and the economic interest's of our country then, it is our responsibility to campaign against them, and vote against them!
It is obvious we should work with the universal laws of balance and equity in all relationships that lead to mutual economic prosperity. A clean environment is a key part of this sustainable balance! Existing global agreements violate all the laws of equity of economic opportunity and mutual broad based worldwide "human economic unit" prosperity. Thus, leaving no economic opportunity to earn a livelihood for billions of our World's Citizens. A lesson in history; will history be repeated?

Conclusion
The extreme exploitive nature of the thousands of Transnational corporations has resulted in massive global economic imbalances and instabilities in major countries that the International Monetary Fund (IMF), is now being asked to bail out with more of your tax money. We can use intelligent regulatory controls to regulate exploitive foreign investments, unfair finance, and unjustly manipulated non-competitive trade advantages. However. the new corporate initiated trade and investment agreements multiply these non-competitive advantages that will continue to result in the failure of Homeland economies! I have always stated that we should develop economic policies that result in the strengthening of local economies toward optimal self sustain ability and independence from the economies of other countries. We should also reduce to every extent possible our dependence on transnational corporations for our economic viability because their policies and practices will destroy the economies of countries! Watch & listen to the crisis in progress on CNN, C-Span and other news sources. Corporations and their investors won but countries lost; and eventually corporations and their investors will lose as well! As soon as I have time I will outline global and national economic policies that will result in sustainable, secure, and mutually prosperous economies of countries worldwide. These policies result in balance and equity within countries and between countries. Stay tuned!My Pages of Links
