Globalization is the attempt by the avarice-motivated affluent to extend the base layers of their transnational economic pyramids down into the mud and dust of intercontinental slave-labour and thereby provide a more distributed foundation for the additional control levels at the pinnacles. This is generally achieved by fronting a publicly plausible co-operative initiative that presents an economic procedure purporting to assist development of the under-privileged, whilst in fact further enhancing the gains of those manipulating the exercise. Deception is nature's way of promoting self interest and to suppose such actions were not designed to deceive, would be to suppose that one of the prime evolutionary stratagems had suddenly ceased to be effective.

It is expected that the insulated financial pyramids thus constructed will be so architecturally impressive and have such a high albedo of reflected esteem and self-sustaining honour, that even with a telescope of moderate resolution it will be possible to see many of them from the first colonies of exploitation on Mars. The purple prose, with which the rich assure the concerned about their initiatives to combat poverty is at best futile and at worst cynical.

Even when the poor nations get large injections of aid or have their debts cleared, unless there is an intrinsically socialist organization, any improvements for the most needy will always be marginal. The group in power will ensure that the reconfigured redistribution of resources is securely channelled in their direction and that it is not wasted on those individuals who do not understand how to manage their affairs. They understand clearly that it is either the will of the gods themselves as to who should be poor, or it is the moral turpitude and laziness of the poor which has resulted in their condition. There is no point in dissipating funds trying to change what the gods have decreed. Neither is there any point in giving alms to the unworthy who only ever fritter it away on luxuries.

So often, due to the perverse self-serving ingenuity of human nature, rules and laws and strategic initiatives actually achieve a result opposed to the stated intention. Globalization is one such strategy since although the promulgated objective is economic equity, the actual consequences are that the rich get richer at a historically unprecedented rate.
