If you insist on paying Americans a "living wage" of $15 - $20 an hour to make Levis, then Levis will cost $100 a pair.

If Levis cost $100 a pair, then Americans working other American jobs with good pay will be able to afford them like they afford $20 jeans now.

Up until the last few decades we made what we needed here and traded with each other. This is how America became a world power and wealthy.

Give me some reasoning why we should enrich other countries at our expense, and independence.

After you give me a reason why you think that I agree with any of this. Just because I report what is happening does not mean I defend it or even like it. I don't like it, but burying my head in the sand will not make it all go away.

Just like I told the other poster - do you think the weatherman should "give you some reasoning" why tornados should destroy peoples homes, just because he was the one to give the tornado warning?

I don't follow your logic.
