So you said "Let those jobs flow overseas" because?

Quote:The question is why is the exact same unremarkable tradecraft is worth $60000 a year in a developed country,  but when done with the the same skill is worth much less in a developing country.

"Why" is irrelevant. The fact is that there are good-paying jobs available in America now that aren't being taken, and they can't be shifted overseas because they involve work on property in America.

And I know some steamfitters that would kick your ass for talking about their trade that way. While it's not rocket science, it ain't exactly unskilled either.
