With all the good paying jobs going overseas how do they expect us to buy what they sell?

One can easily turn that question around.

Would you like to pay more for something because those who produce it receive high salaries? Or would you be happy to buy the same product at a lower price when produced by lower paid workers?

Most everyone around here loves to trumpet the values of undiluted capitalism and the virtues of the market, severed from any social or human principles.

Well this is it. Somebody in another country can do your job for less financial reward.

Enjoy.

As long as the quality is good, I would be more than happy to pay more for the American-made product. No hesitation on my part. I would assume that most loyal Americans would be glad to do the same if they are financially able.

When compared to the rest of the world, the average citizen in the U.S. is very wealthy.

This type of "equalization" will certainly mean that we will become poorer.

Maybe a lot poorer.
