I don't think I have to harp about the impossibility of raising a family on minimum wage. What are we trying to say, that the world wants brain surgeons but not janitors? Good luck with that world.
That's because a Chinese labor in China doesn't have to contend with the fact that the entire supply chain ending in his dinner table is over paid. An American labor does. Still, the problem with American economy is systemic inadaquacy of labor quality relative to rates of pay throughout the entire economy.
There you go again. Do you even understand basic world economy? What part of "you cant compete with a dollar a day pay" do you not understand? And also, making sound as if it is the typical Americans fault is quite rude as well.. I expect lies like that from most right wingers. In reality the Chineese people are being taken advantage of their government and the American companies who go over there to do business with them..and they want the same thing here.
They dont want upward mobility. They want a plutocracy, with a select few having all of the money, while the rest fight over the scraps they drop from their tables..and the chinese have allowed them to do such a thing.
