If we work for less money then we will spend less money.

So we're entitled to the job we want at the wages we demand? Exactly when did this happen - and what happened to the free-market? And why was it that we rebuked labor unions when they demanded it? Why exactly was it that we opposed the minimum wage? I guess it wasn't a problem when it happened to someone else.

The market dictates wage value, no one is entitled to a particular wage. When labor is dumped on the market at below prevailing value, wages are reduced.

Dumping is considered a trade violation because it's intent is to drive away all competition. The government’s responsibility is to ensure unfair trade practices do not affect the balance of the market by reducing competition.

Competition is the driving force of our economy. When talking about labor our skills are the widgets not our wages. Competition drives innovation and innovation drives prosperity. The mantra is skill to skill not wage to slave wage.

So we're entitled to the job we want at the wages we demand?No nor is any employer entitled to have the job he wants performed done at the wages he wants to pay. A free market provides the best distribution of labor, goods and services. You are the one arguing for currency controls and the current trade envirornment which is anything but a free market. What happened to the Free market is that it was sacrificed on an internationalist globalism altar.

And why was it that we rebuked labor unions when they demanded it?

Labor unions should be rebuked when they demand excessive wages and a right that does not exist under a free market system.

Why exactly was it that we opposed the minimum wage? I guess it wasn't a problem when it happened to someone else.

We are not talking about a minimum wage issue here as with a free market within the USA and approporiate tariffs in place very very few will be merely making minimum wage in a booming economy that actually produces goods and services. Do you not understand there is a differtence between "Free Trade" especiually if that nomenclature is used to describe the current trade enviurornment and a Free Market.
