You know, the labor overseas is a faulty and emotional argument. If labor wasn’t cheap overseas the jobs wouldn’t be there and people would be worse off. those jobs are a lifeline to the people and gives the government much needed capital to improve their country if they choose to.

had another person accuse America of exploiting others and you really just have to consider that these countries are worse off without the job. If you went into a desolate country and out of the kindness of you heart payed them all $5 an hour then the folks are just going to see massive inflation.

Sure, I understand that analysis. I guess I’m talking more about China per se, where the term “slave labor” isn’t an exaggeration.
