Chinese slaves earn $1/hr at most. They do not need healthcare, dental, 401k, disability insurance, social security, medicare, etc.
American workers now demand at least $10/hr (even Trump agrees). And they want all sorts of benefits, including 401k matching.
Can you tell me HOW businesses are going to make products “more affordable” in the US? I agree that once automation takes over, these manual drone jobs will be over. Until then, you will be paying at least 5x for pure American-made products. I am not talking about Chinese made but American label slapped products. There is no mathematical way around it.
I did. Is the current regulatory/taxation regime at the federal level really tenable, compared to its abolition?

My US-made can opener that I bought at Walmart was $10, FTR.
