“The fact that no one wants to pay an extra $10 for a tee-shirt so that someone that they have never met can afford a 70 inch TV.”
“That is a ridiculous supposition. How can anyone have a rational discussion with that BS flung out as a starting point? That is why Cheap Labor Express whores are losing the battle.”

Why is it ridiculous to say that American consumers do not want “to pay an extra $10 for a tee-shirt so that someone that they have never met can afford a 70 inch TV.”

Are you claiming that the average American wants to pay more for products so that others can have a bigger TV than they do?

Ok how much does a t-shirt cost now? How much of that cost is labor? Do you work in textiles? Do you really think t-shirts made is the USA would cost $10 piece? I can get a three pack of t-shirt for 5 bucks. Do you honestly believe a 3 pack of t-shirts made in the USA would cost $30.00? Really? Why did you pick the figure $10. To make your point why not pick $50.00? Why not $100 per t-shirt? Free Republic loses credibility when economic geniuses post wild crazy stuff like you just did. Sad and stupid at the same time.
