1 If economic globalisation is inevitable, it should primarily serve humanity rather than the interests of trans-national corporations.
Agree. I am not against transnational corporations per se, but would strongly agree that preventing them from taking advantage of things like child labor or sweatshops is necessary.
2. I'd always support my country, whether it was right or wrong.
Strongly disagree. When I support my country it's because I think my country is in the right. If I lived in North Korea, I probably wouldn't be supporting my country. If my country were doing horrible things, of course I wouldn't support those.
3. No one chooses his or her country of birth, so it's foolish to be proud of it.
Strongly disagree. Nothing foolish about it. This is related to #2 above. I am proud of my country because of what we are, not because I was born here. I don't think it's foolish to be proud of what we have achieved. So yes, I'm proud to have been born here because I think it's the best place to live.
4. Our race has many superior qualities, compared with other races.
Strongly disagree. Life experiences have confirmed what I felt throughout my lfie to be true, that the amount of melanin in your skin, the shape of your eyes or other minute differences don't mean a whole lot. Genetically, it's even incorrect to say that there are different "races" of humans since we are all incredibly similar. Being so similar, it's ridiculous to say that "our race" has superior qualities, since they are the same qualities.
5. The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
Disagree. There may be a need to play enemies off each other, but just because Iran and Iraq were at war doesn't mean one of them was our friend. Take a look at a picture of Donald Rumsfeld shaking hands with Saddam Hussein all those years ago and tell me how well that worked out for us.
