open borders and “free” trade have driven down wages and quality of life more than anything. Blame the left, yes, for sure, but don’t for get to blame the free traitors in the Republican party and the open border ‘muh labor shortage’ bought and paid for Republican traitors like G W MORON, Paul RYNO, Romney, etc.
“open borders and “free” trade have driven down wages and quality of life more than anything.”
No doubt they are major contributor, but I think the huge taxes required to create the Socialist Nanny State Cradle-to-Grave did a lot more damage. That damage pre-dated the offshoring of jobs by five or more decades.
But there is no doubt that BOTH are major contributors to our demise.
