JC: I have a lot of sympathy for your concerns. Seems "the battle in
Seattle" is such a case. I wouldn't presume to defend the actions or
opinions of every protester against the WTO, but there is the same basic
fight we've through this century. Its a battle of intellectual and
social values, don't you think? I mean the principled dissenters are
interested in the human rights of workers, the ending the enviromental
degradation caused by industry and other broad issues. It seems the
defenders of the WTO are hardly concerned with anything other than the
bottom line. It the same old same old.
