why do you think some people should do better than other people who live in a different locale.
Precisely because they do better. I am not in favor of equal outcomes for anything. I am however in favor of equal opportunities on a level playing field. For any business labor cost are a major overhead. If one company utilizes a slave wage workforce and then dumps inferior quality products at a much lower price than a company making a similar product at higher quality, then the balance has been tilted in favor of the slavedriver acquiring initial market share for that product. How do you even the opportunity for selling back out? Correct me if I am wrong but you seem to be advocating penalizing the employees (union slobs) of the business owner operating fairly by saying let the lower cost producer (which is state subsidized and also has tariffs in place on your goods) trade free. This will force the competition to either cut labor cost by reducing wages/benfits already agreed to or pack up the shop and find their own slave workforce. I contend this is exactly what is happening to the American manufacturing industry and that is why I say IF you are aiding it then you are a mercenary selling out your relatives,friends and countrymen. This will be my last post to you but i would still appreciate a direct answer to my question. I have tried to do you the courtesy of answering yours, please do likewise. Thnak you in advance.
BTW for someone that takes the moniker of an avowed agnostic you sure are busy lecturing others about morals.
And the moniker has nothing to do with beliefs, it has to do with debate.
