If your work isn't worth any more than the pay the Chinese worker gets, upon what basis should I and others pay you more?

Hi Mr. Redwoods. I enjoy your little-l logic. Let's take it a step further shall we.

If I can get human organs cheaper from Red China than from the US and other first-world countries, why should I and other pay more for the latter?

Let's take it one step further. Let's say *you* are living in Red China, that *you* are in a political prison, and it's *your* organs I am talking about getting for cheap.

Mr. Redwoods, by your little-l logic, why indeed should I pay more for domestic human organs when I can buy *your* organs for less?

Likewise, if *your* job is offshored to a Red Chinese political prison for pennies on your former wage dollar, give me a reason why I should care using your little-l logic.

Tell me how, using your logic, anything you can do will affect how the chinese choose to treat their prisoners? That field of thought is too rich to cover here but it goes to show the weakness of your argument.

Try this, how can any law our country might pass long protect an inflated wage for an anachronistic job against a global market? The world has changed since there was a "big three" and your daddy drove either a Ford, Chevy or Plymouth(remember Plymouths?)and competition comes from anywhere. You can rail against it or you can compete against it but you cannot legislate it away.
