"Jim needs to learn his real enemy; Trans National Corporations & Banks"
The really enemy is the Enemy Within - the Governments and politician who allow "Trans National Corporations & Banks" to run roughshod over the will and well-being of the population as a whole.
Without Government and political support and with firm regulation, they would be merely businesses plying a trade.
Surely the various banking crises are evidence enough of that - maybe not!
Allan is right - "bad nationalism is bad".
Good Nationalism brought about the fall of Empires and freed the world to go their own way - and make their own mistakes.
Unfortunately, the British Establishment has retained some of the worst aspects of Imperialism and has used the inherent 'superiority' that was drilled into my generation to engender hate and fear towards those we once ruled - we have the perfect example on this forum in the handful of flag-waggers who still talk about "the brainwashed Irish" and the "culturally implanted" Pakistanis and the Scots who "couldn't make it on their own" and the "Frogs who never won a war".......
Racial intolerance and xenophobia is never far below the surface in Britain and has a nasty habit of floating to the surface whenever it is needed to keep us in our place.   
RACISM in BRITAIN
Pride in ones people and their achievements is laudable - blind support for any nation and its institutions "My Country - Right and Wrong" is evil and dangerous.
