You read an awful lot into a pretty brief comment. I'm a DUmmy. A socialist. A chicken little. All because I lament the fact that a lot of American jobs are fleeing overseas.

You'll notice that I didn't demand any kind of protectionism, so that kind of shoots your "anti-freemarket" label to hell. Nor did I demand any state intervention, or ramble on about the workers owning the means of production, so your accusation of socialism is equally vapid. As to chicken little, I only commented on the reality, not some extrapolated prediction. The jobs HAVE gone overseas. Whether they'll continue to or not, and what changes will arise as a result, unlike you and your freemarket clairvoyant fellow travelers, I cannot tell. Nor did I try.

So STFU and sit down.

Ok great. So you're in the business of pointing out the obvious. But don't be disingenuous here. Your statement implied that these same families would not be able to feed themselves becuase these jobs are going overseas.
