The argument against globalism, especially its pro-imigration
component, at least for the average USA citizen, is clear enuogh to
me: globalism is simply bad business deal for average wage earner.
The average wage earner (AWE) has the opportunity to sell his services
in a location that has many competitive advantages. Why would the SWE
want to give up his semi-exclusive (he shares it with only ~170
million other America AWE) advantage over AWEs in most of the rest of
the world?
