PLACE YOUR BETS

Now that the global capitalist class has settled on Paul Wolfowitz to head the world's largest underdevelopment organization, all eyes are on who will be the next pick to head the WTO?

Betting is already well under way.

Whoever it is will undoubtedly be of the class of globe-trotting elites who walk the revolving door between trade lobbying, the private sector, and trade "ministering."And whoever that is will have the unwelcome task of resuscitating the dying embers of the Doha Round of trade negotiations, four years long and counting. Good riddance.
