No, I believe the American worker is the best and that's why I don't fear free trade like you do.
If you don't get into management at some point you are worthless
No, who is more valuable to a company, a person that can run a machine the size of a barn, or a person that walks around writing stuff on a clipboard? In most cases the guy who runs the machine.
Offshoring production to a slavocracy and potential enemy is considered the height of freedom
Every nation on earth is a potential enemy. Under a better tax and regulation system, only the industries we can't do efficiently would be offshored, and those are usually the low-tech industries.
Displaced factory workers should just retrain to be brain surgeons and software engineers
Factory work is factory work. If you can do it you can do it, it usually doesn't matter what industry it is. You don't have to go to college to go from sheet metal to wood, or vice-versa.
The ChiComs are more free than we are.
Every people gets the government they fight for. If they are not free they need to fight, if they don't fight, then they don't have the motivation it takes to be free. That's why nation-building doesn't work. We're still more free than the Chinese but we still have that 2/3rds of the population we had in 1776 that either doesn't care or wants men like Obama to be dictators.
