Actually the Corporatistas hate the laws of economics that call for an equilibrium in wages vs profits.

If you have a job that "Americans won't do" it means the wages you are offering are too meager.

There is no such "equlibrium". There is no such law of economics.

What law of economics is that?! Is that law only in operation on the North American continent? You're talking zero sum here, if the Americans were paid this hypothetical equilibrium wage you'd have to put a 50+% tariff on things like Korean cars and they'd be back to square one forking out $25,000 for a cracker box car (among other things) on their $60,000 "equilibrium wage".

Of course, prices on goods would rise commensurately here, but we could fix that with "wage and price controls" right?

That's the old paradigm. The new paradigm is "I don't care about your job, as long as you vote for my candidate".
