DOR,
sure. but I'm a patriot first and foremost, so while it's nice billions rose out of abject poverty, I'd also prefer a national outcome that didn't involve the hollowing out of the US working/middle class, and the subsequent defection of the US working class to an ever-crazier GOP.
also, when a good portion of the "billions rising out of abject poverty" happen to occur in an authoritarian trending totalitarian regime, then my interest declines even further.
That only works on a national scale. Worldwide, there is nothing wrong with globalization. Just ask the billions that rose out of abject poverty in our lifetimes.
No substitute.
