No, the marketplace didn't change it's mind. You overruled it with free trade. The marketplace didn't have a say in free trade. You politiked it into play and shoved it down our throats. Your politics decided - not the marketplace. As I said before, care to revise your bs answer..
Sorry, but if your job needs to be protected by Mother Government, then it wasn't a job beneficial to the economy to begin with.

The marketplace is ALL ABOUT free trade. A command economy is the antithesis of the marketplace. No free trade, no marketplace. This Econ 101.
What about the consumer? Why do I have to be forced by protectionists like you to pay two or three times more than the market dictates for basic goods?
Which begs the question which again I ask (you keep ignoring this question), what good does getting paid twice as much for my labor here at home do me if my cost of living as a result triples?
High wages aren't high if the prices are also high. This very argument you are making about how the price of labor is such a huge factor in business decisions undermines your point and makes mine. If you jack up a company's cost of doing business, then they have to jack up the price of their product to continue to make a profit or in some cases just break even. You're just robbing Peter to pay Paul. Spinning your wheels...
