If SEZs could be established all over the world, complete with low taxes and corporate-friendly regulation, investment could be sucked out of social democratic states and into these free market paradises.

✏️ These economic zones are basically a quick and dirty way of establishing heavy neoliberal capitalism in socially democratic states.
Anywhere that’s too friendly to the people and too strict on governments won’t be able to attract strong investments, so these zones pull investment into them and benefit just the corps above all else.
