>>It is economies of efficiencies that have been created by government that has forced manufacturing offshore. Environmental and labor arbitrage.
I agree with you. The corporations will only accept the profits they can create with third-world labor. So, they lobby for this and that to grow the government, and then they complain that they can’t afford to be here anymore.
Meanwhile, the government creates socialism for the worker class so they can afford to live while making low wages with no future. The government gives them the handouts and the ObamaCare to pay for the cheap Chinese products.
There is no more America in their minds. There is the government, the Elites, and the workers of the world and all workers are interchangeable. No patriotism. No allegiances, except to the other Elites.
The “laws” of economics are as unprepared to function with the technology of today. They are as obsolete as the “rules” of traditional journalism.
That's an excellent observation. And a very welcome byproduct.
