To the free trader, job losses are irrelevant.

Those would be jobs that employ non-college educated Americans, the low class scum for whom they have nothing but contempt.

Correction, they're not irrelevant, just necessary. Through the 90's the U.S. 'lost' 27-36 million jobs a year. Capitalism is a profit and loss system, and the process is know as creative destruction. As new efficiencies are identified and utilized labor is freed up for new ventures. You seem to be in favor of a stagnate economy. Since manufacturing employment has shrunk worldwide as a portion of the labor force, how would you prevent this? At what point do you arrest progress?

Those would be jobs that employ non-college educated Americans, the low class scum for whom they have nothing but contempt.

Class warfare, how pathetic.
