They certainly do not mean much to the common people like you and me,who still possess a sense of human compassion for the problems of the poor and the starving. But those abstract terms definetely do sound good when they come out of the mouth of the strong political leaders, who are trying to convince everybody that globalization necessarily is a positive thing, when one of its major failures is that it has widened the gap between the rich and the poor. But you explained those things better than me:)

I can resist anything but temptation.- Oscar Wilde
