The economic crisis was forecasted at Ray Tapajna Chronicles at http://tapsearch.com/tapartnews since 1998.  We are reviewing the new Pope Benedict's Charity is truth economic encyclical at http://tapsearch.com/pope-benedict-economic-encyclical   It is proving to be a difficult task because the encyclical does not have a definition of free trade as it is practiced today  compared to its historical practice.  Also, the term globalization is used throughout the encyclical  but it too lacks any real definition as to its origin and practice.  Our site here  perhaps should be read first before anyone trys to review the encyclical so that some common understanding of terminology can be reached. We will note this site as such at http://tapsearch.com/pope-benedict-economic-encyclical  We also feel the term Globalism should be part of the description but it is not mentioned.

See Below:  This is primarily a book review of The World is Flat by Thomas Friedman - by Ray Tapajna, Editor and Artist at Tapart News and Art that Talks, who describes Friedman's  book as a "corker" - Ray forcasted the economic crisis.  Economies based on making money on money instead of making things are burning out.  The deflation of the value of workers and labor has now affected the value of money.  See Chronicals of events behind the financial crisis  at  http://tapsearch.com/tapartnews 
While Thomas Friedman rides planes to far away places and talks to world leaders about the wonders of globalism and safeguarding the ecology, Ray takes rides with cab drivers who come from all over the world and tell it like it is.  He also drives down miles of main streets in major cities with empty stores and empty factories.  He drives down the main streets in small towns with rows of empty stores while outside of the towns are Walmarts selling imports made by impoverished workers. Imagine all the people that once were a hub of lively business activity in these places across the USA.  Now  those who are left are  part of the new working poor  class in the USA.  And Ray writes about the 8000 mile energy saving light bulb that takes 8000 miles, protective packaging to get to  the USA after being made in questionable mercury "dirty" factories .  After miles of long haul shipping by ocean and some by plane that consume loads of energy while polluting the air , the 8000 mile light bulbs arrive in shipping containers from the  giant Chinese COSCO shipping company which is owned in part by the Chinese Liberation Army!

Welcome Dysfunctional Globalists and
Dislocated Workers who have no voice
in Globalization or Free Trade process.  It's really all about you in the New World Dis-Order !
( A Book Review - The World is Flat by Thomas Friedman of N Y Times )
Pass on site to all in the world dedicated to workers dignity - South America,
Asia, Europe, Middle East etc. For more articles click expert author above.  It is really all about you in the global economic arena.
The basic problem is this: 
The Federal Reserve Bank prints money images on paper and calls it money. The value of  the paper is relative to the power and the economic investments based on this paper, interest rates and stock values.   It is not based on an "absolute" value as it once was when it was based on the gold standard.  Instead, usury interest rates captures both individuals and nations. Labor is the only variable value and it is exploited down to the levels of wage slave and even child labor. It is a new kind of slave trade, colonialism and imperialism where raw Capitalism mixes with Communism and Socialism in a Globalism stew. It makes a mockery of the Free Enterprise system.
Our main expert sources include Chuck Harder, Manuel Castell, Sir James Goldsmith, Representative Marcy Kaptur and  Doctor Pat Choate.  We also include the Catholic Workers and its founders Peter Maurin and Dorothy Day. They maintained that business should make it easier for men and women to be good. Pat Buchanan and others were  instrumental in a Populist response but were quickly put aside. However, the Populist movement is coming like a tidal wave from South America and the USA is too busy in the Middle East to stop it. Bishops like St Alberto Hurtado led the way fifty years ago.  Other South American and Catholic Bishops and priests  were martyrs in recent times. There is also Bishop Ramazzini who renounced CAFTA in the U.S. Congress. Unfortunately in our country we have a President of a Jesuit University backing someone like Thomas Friedman.  At the same time, however,  we do have the Jesuit volunteers who work for social justice across the globe. There is also Rerum Novarum - an open letter by Pope Leo on the conditions of labor in 1891. It  was a standard for a very long time  in the labor relations. However, today many people of good will say,  I  believe in  most of the spiritual  and social justice things like you, but  we must adjust to the real world.  The real world today has President Bush saying his favorite philosopher was Jesus.  His actions say something else.  His actions say - It's nothing personal , I am just taking care of business.
We now include John Perkins, author of Confessions of an Economic Hit Man and The Secret History of the American Empire. Our stories about the demise of  local value added economies fit with his in the   global economic arena.  All should read his books. No matter what you conclude about the man, the events are obviously real and you do not need any conspiracy theories to make your own conclusions.
There is also Congressman Dennis Kucinich and Ralph Nadar who are right about many of these things. However, Dennis forgets that abortion and his ultra left positions  are geopolitical contradictions.

The Bewildered New World hears from the Pope. It may be too little and too late.

The essence of women, nuns, sisterhood in an oasis of love by a 1950s man at http://www.therationale.com/oasis-of-love-and-sisterhood  The  sisters I had in grade school actually paved the way for me in the work world too. It was all about love being first.

Laurie Goodstein and Rachel Dunadio from the New York Times reported the issuing of Pope Benedict economic encyclical was delayed due to the economic crisis.  We explored the latent response of religion and philsophy to the global economic arena at http://www.therationale.com  Religion has trailed economic events for a long time instead of making a stand.   Newsweek/Washington Post published a review by Father Thomas J Reese SJ at Georgetown University and some who responded to the article wondered why Father Reese did not say more about what he thought about it and just repeated sections from it .
