Who will lead this 'New World Order'?

I could barely read Kathleen Parker's Oct 24 article "Saying things that need to be said" without thinking, "Huh?" After eight years of hibernating from voicing anything during the Obama years, now G.W. Bush comes out to get his 15 minutes, and maybe more, of fame. All one has to do is criticize Trump and you are an instant rock star. Is Bush trying to salvage his legacy from being the second worst president ever?

And, from Parker's article, per Bush, "We can't wish globalization away, anymore than we could wish away the agricultural revolution or the industrial revolution." As Bush suggested, "globalization is the new age and the old one isn't coming back." So, are we just supposed to sit back and let the rest of the world walk into Europe and the U.S., and that will make a better world?

There are 7 billion people in the world. How many are we supposed to take in? One billion? More? Yet, as Bush stated, "our jobs won't come back, they are gone." Well, who is going to support these mostly poor, unskilled Third World people of this New World Order?

My question is, when the entire globe is one Third World socialistic country, someone tell me what is so good about globalization for the working upper and middle class in the U.S. and Europe? Just who wins and who will lead this New World Order?
