"oh that one's easy, No. wait...yes... no, definately NO. imagine forcing communism on a capitalist society, it wouldnt go so well..."
No it wouldn't. But if few people think the Korean War was a bad thing (as far as wars go anyway) even though we forced capitalism on them : because they are today a grateful rich democracy. People have this double standard, we're allowed to force capitalism on France or Korea, but not Vietnam?

Earthlink News WTO OKs U.S. Sanctions Over Dumping Rules
BRUSSELS, Belgium - The World Trade Organization authorized the European Union and seven other leading U.S. trading partners Tuesday to impose more than $150 million worth of sanctions against the United States for failing to repeal anti-dumping rules deemed illegal by the WTO.

The ruling by the Geneva-based organization allows the complainants to fine the United States up to 72 percent of money collected from foreign exporters under the so-called Byrd Amendment.

However, the EU and the other complainants - Japan, Brazil, Canada, Chile, India, South Korea and Mexico - indicated they would hold off from imposing sanctions. Instead, they are likely to use the threat of retaliation to press the U.S Congress for an early repeal of the legislation.

WTO is what makes sure we don't have 1800s style economic nationalism. Its made to help stop farm subsidies, steel tarifs etc... Its made to drop economic barriers, that's all.

Thanks for changing the subject

When the majority of society has to endure with a lot of personal economic problems. For example, Pensions and to be able to buy a simple affordable house, and inflation due to oil prices rising. In addition, high level food prices. These are problems that a lot of people not only in the UK are experiencing, but a lot of other states in the world today. This shows when we have a strong system that is against society i.e Capitalism, it means problems for the majority of the public.
