Fantastic piece. I have wanted to say this for a long time, and might eventually write about it, but people act like borders have been immutable forever. They are not. When a border is placed, it is an act of violence, that ripples through time for generations...Corporations know no borders. Only labor. and that's wrong. Thanks for this column.
