WSWS: "The Bush administration's quest to privatize virtually everything will pay huge dividends for the American military contractor Lockheed Martin this year. In February, the giant company was awarded a $1.9 billion contract to assume control of an important function of the US aviation system. Some 2,000 air traffic specialists will lose their jobs in October when the company takes over a function that has been performed by the public sector for half a century."
Monbiot: Commercialisation, privatisation and the liberalisation of trade and capital flows is taking over the world.
CommonDreams: "In particular, Oxfam has calculated that the EU and the United States are massively understating the real levels of export subsidization."
And this shows the real problem: trade is unfair and not free.
