our jobs are headed your way as fast as corporate America can get them there. And their standard of living is headed our way.
To: Willie Green
America's standard of living rose dramatically over the past 4 decades during the time when Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Singapore, etc. were producing cheap goods for US consumers. Back in 1960, America's per-capita GDP was about $3,000 but now it's over $30,000, which is more than a 10-fold increase. Americans today, despite a recession, still enjoy the highest standard of living on Earth, higher than Japanese or Europeans.
