That may be true but I don't think that woman is going to find a way to vote herself a better standard of living.
One billion Chinese and one billion Indians are on a path to greater use of technology and higher productivity. It's like a tsunami of higher productivity. Americans have benefitted for several generations from the backwardness of a great part of the world. Our good fortune in that regard is waning.
Politically, higher productivity people are going to have to choose between aligning themselves with high productivity people outside the U.S. or low productivity people within the U.S.
The former alignment might "raise all boats". The latter will create a version of "Atlas Shrugged" here in the U.S. I don't see an alternative.
Yeah but isn't that point? She is going to try and the leftist will take over and the globalists will be to blame. The right owns globalism. The USA was fine before we starred importing almost EVERYTHING. We won 2 world wars making our own things.
