I disagree. Here are my reasons: globalization is an effect of
intelligent, directed efforts. It is directed by those who buy and
sell labor, the fruits of others' labor. Because, as the ancient laws
of commerce dictate, they profit when they buy low and sell high,
they therefore want lower prices for labor. So tell me, please, why
"things have a stronger chance to level up than level-out or down."
