Clifford Orwin	I am disgusted that our profiteering and neoclassical Big Brains are exploiting the experienced atrocities at the World Trade Center and the Pentagon to ridicule the anti-globalization movement. Political science professor Clifford Orwin says that
	"Overnight, the anti-globalization movement is toast An affluent public at peace will fret over the wages Nike pays its workers in Honduras, but a public at war will not."
	Professor Orwin makes fun of the anti-globalization movement and of the religion of Islam and states that as
	"McWorld continues to expand, Jihad will continue to flourish, fed by apocalyptic hopes heralding the destruction of the Great Satan."
Marxism	I hope, you readers will be reading in full Professor Orwin's article, and reflect on the inappropriateness of the satire of this neoclassical asset against the anti-globalization movement. Professor Owens writes:
	"Anti-globalization so-called was the New Left merged with the New Age (a vague anti-materialistic "spirituality" having replaced discredited Marxism) and retooled for the New Millennium."
civil movement	I must say that I am not a New Leftist and I tell you why the current anti-globalization movement is a required civil movement to offset the abuses of the big transnational corporations and allied governments. Globalization doesn't enhance democracy and it doesn't enhance freedom; globalization is a trend which further provides the division of the rich from the poor, and this division affects both countries and people.
power of money	I am not a dogmatic person, I am just a reflective person. I am not a rational Big Brain who manipulates statistical information to represent the real truth. My truth is the one I have been writing progressively in this electronic journal, Ensign. The wrong of our society is that it is run by the power of money rather than the power of people; and this power of money has created the so-called "ceteris paribus" way of life.
instabilities are intrinsic	Ceteris paribus means that we don't change anything unless the powers that be wins. The ceteris paribus way of life sustains the status quo unless people with money make more and more money. I am going to provide few explanations to support my argument. Just think of the banking system which makes money with money and where the biggest banks are located in the richest countries. Just think of the financial markets where instabilities are intrinsic and where even Bin Laden could have benefitted from them. Just think of the protection of the many copyrights and business secrets which are the monopoly of the richest people in the richest countries. And just think of our academic Big Brains and neoclassical economists who use the scientific tool of statistics to support the status quo to make money with money with a confidence interval for example of 99%.
	Do I have to say more in order to support a new way to think? Please let me know.
