Stupid. We are talking about labor arbitrage across international borders. Competition between Americans is good. Competition with the third world - bad. Very bad. Just shows deep down you are a stateless creature. Pathetic.
American workers have been hurt by:
High taxes
Massive bureaucracy
Regulation
Excessively attractive welfare
Fatherlessness
Educational failure
Infinite illegal immigration
Those things truly hurt our workers.
There is no doubt Americans have been hurt. The question is, what hurt them?
I recommend the list above, not their choosing freely with whom they traded.
Ad himinem attacks display the depth of your thinking.
“Competition with the third world - bad.”
Saying it’s “bad” is economically meaningless. We are in competition with them whether you like it or not. Either we adapt to that reality, or we suffer.
