The answer is to lower wages here in the US and at the same time maintain the same standard of living. Lowering taxes and moving to a completely "Free Trade" environment is not going to accomplish that. That's the only way your model will work, so how do you plan on accomplishing this? Unfortunately it's easier to have government apply tarrifs and raise taxes than it is to have them reduce them.

The only thing your model does is push more people into the liberal camp by making them rely more on the government. Do you honestly believe most American's are up to your challenge?

They had better be. It's not like there is another choice, is there?
