The problem that I see with the global economy is the fact that it's next to impossible to buy local anymore. The majority of products are made in foreign countries by domestic corporations. Meanwhile the companies that made the conscious decision to keep their production facilities in the same country that they reside in are no longer in existence, or nearly bankrupt.
The only people that are benefitting from the relaxation and elimination of global trade barriers are those in the bastions of corporate North America, and to a very small extent, those who are working the factories in the developing world, earning next to nothing.
