Isn't that the truth!
Cigarette markets collapse, RDU traffic decreases to 10%, American Airlines the worlds largest, scales back. Boeing percieves a drastic decline in aircraft orders, ALCOA senses a major drop in aluminum prices and closes mines in seven foriegn countries! Three countries default on "promissory notes", world bank had never anticipated more than two nations defaulting at one time, World Bank collapses.

World struck by total economic collapse!!!

and all you had to do was,

Smoke, smoke, smoke those cigarettes!!!!

Actually, only 17% of American industry is foreign owned. And the US owns more foreign interests than the other way around.

The move toward globalization is picking up momentum.

ice wine

award winning, world class stuff for the wine drinker of fine wines is grown here, in canada about 15 min. from my house.

one think to remember of course, is many big corporations in north america go to poorer nations for the distinct purpose of cheap labor costs and materials and charge major dollars for the products here at home for big time profits.

and Scylis...recent article stated that canadian grown weed from the prairies is primo. (not that i am condoning partaking of the hemp growing products )
