text: Saunders fails of course to mention the fact that voters in the West have played along with the "yes" forces for the past three decades, leading to a stagnant global economy and growing social inequality. Christine Lagarde of the IMF has noted that globalization hasn't exactly been an economic panacea and others, including Oxford professor and economist Paul Collier, have noted that mass migration hasn't generated the benefits touted by its proponents, with the marginalized and poor, including immigrants already living in Western societies, paying the biggest price. So, if the globalizers can't figure out how to make the "yes" agenda work except for a very small group of investors and rentiers, why on earth should voters give it the benefit of the doubt?
