"The goal has been the 'Third Worldization' of the United States:
- an increasingly underemployed, lower-wage work-force;
- a small but growing moneyed class that pays almost no taxes;
- the privatization or elimination of human services;
- the elimination of public education for low-income people;
- the easing of restrictions against child labor;
- the exporting of industries and jobs to low-wage, free-trade countries;
- the breaking of labor unions;
- and the elimination of occupational safety and environmental controls and regulations."
