True, as much as leftists love to complain about the problems caused by globalization, free trade is what made life as we know it today possible. By specializing and trading companies/countries/whoever keeps costs down, profits up, and everybody's happy. Economics is not a zero sum game where if I win someone else must lose. Competition drives innovation.
It's probably off topic, but does anyone think the games industry would have reached the level of sophistication that it has if companies weren't constantly trying to outdo each other? Without the inherent competition of a capitalist system this year we'd probably be just barely seeing the release of the 64.
