There are too many countries where labor is exploited and it is time we adhere to their rights under Capitalism.

How many SUCCESSFUL business's have YOU started, owned or ran?
Sounds like a non federal public employee, won't use "worker", to me!


And probably a BIG hypocrite buy buying most of your stuff made somewhere other then in America because of being to cheap to buy American made.

Ronald Regan's removal of the FCC fairness doctrine was funded by major corporations and was intended to use the corporate media to vilify Unions to the point that people would not understand their benefits any longer. We have nearly two generations of Americans who have been brainwashed to think Union's are bad for workers when in reality that's one of the reason why blue collar wages in most of the country don't increase with the COL.

I sure as hell am not going to lower my price, the customers are willing to pay the $50 bucks, I am not in the charity market.


Now in the long run, other people may use cheap labor like me, and then I need to lower my price to compete.
It also depresses wages here at home.

I do not care about depressed wages though.
Perhaps they will need to go on welfare.

It will increase my taxes, but like the illegals I employ that I pay dirt cheap wages to, they will also go on welfare, I can include those costs in the products and services I sell, so I pass those costs to the suckers buying my goods and services that make wages where they can not pass on the costs and laugh all the way to the bank.

Congratulation you have rediscovered what Karl Marx was explaining.....the fundamental flaw when dealing with humans seem to be that psychopathic individuals rise to positions of influence in every Human system period...its been said that modern man has a three-day veneer of civilization and after the three-day food supply is gone bedlam ensues ....the best we can hope for socialistic tinkering around the edges of Capitalism to try to get a more humane outcome IMHO
