Encouraging individual sovereignty and a healthy commons
I made a few tangential points regard globalization in a similar discussion. Basically wondering how globalization which was a very right wing corporatist idea (Sanders calls it a Koch brothers proposal here <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=vf-k6qOfXz0" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=vf-k6qOfXz0</a> basically) became a favorite of the new left.  And conversely anti-globalization was a top issue for the left along with TPP, NAFTA and other such stuff.<p>I think it is rather ironic that the new &quot;left&quot; love them globalization all of the sudden, even when their younger brothers were tear-gassed protesting it, just a decade ago or so protesting against it.<p>(More discussion here <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=13682260" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=13682260</a> along with a promising book on the subject, &#x27;The Technological Society&#x27; by Jacques Ellul suggested by Drumlin. Still waiting for it to come from Amazon)
