The fact is, that the advantage of low prices by importing

everything
is compensated by the loss of jobs by the people that would take
advantage
of those prices.
No. Unemployment is at near-historic lows. People
have jobs.
If you consider $6/hour a job.
If you work some minimum number of hours at it - I
forget if it's 20 or 25 - then it is considered
full-time employment by the BLS.

You do not have a "right" to a high wage job.


No, you don't. But that's what is replacing all the good
jobs that are being sent overseas, with the enthusiastic
support of the current administration. And just because
they say unenployment is low, doesn't mean that americans
are well off. When you lose a good paying job, and take
a minimum wage job,


People don't lose $25-$30 an hour jobs and then find $7
an hour jobs. You're spouting unsubstantiated nonsense.


There are a lot of people working well under their abilities
in todays economy. I've ran into an engineer I used to work
with at the hardware store - where he now works. For a lot
of people, you take a low paying job or you don't work.

How many high-paying factory jobs are being created these days?
