The case of the developing nations is mixed, with China and India
accounting between them for almost all of the statistical improvement
in poverty rates.

They can thank the United States for improvements in their poverty rate.  If
it wasn't for US companies exporting jobs to these countries, their poverty
rates would not have improved as much.

No matter how you cut it, the United States has a positive impact on the
rest of the world.

Here we have a policy (Free Trade) that is helping the "balance" in the
world, and liberals can only say it's not enough.  By exporting those jobs
to China and India it gives those countries a lift in their economy.  In
turn the cheap goods they produce are making the cost of living more
affordable for the "poor" or "working poor" in this country (and any other
country too for that matter).

By putting these people to work we are helping to stem the tide of
anti-Americanism.  By helping these people help themselves, they will
concentrate more on their own lives instead of listening to the lefties of
the world preaching class hatred.

Let's face it, if the liberals were to get their way, everyone would be
wearing the same brown shirts, brown pants, brown shoes and brown caps, all
making the same amount of money whether they worked or not.

Self reliance, victory and achievement are all foreign concepts to the left.
