as an american you should know that competition is the base of prosperity.
if everyone can just take whatever he wants you would be forced to pay it.

not taking this advantage is against all odds and against all rules of a free market.

no one with high skills will come to us to work for peanuts.
but what you expect is that americans with a much higher live standard will do the shit jobs for the same money.

they will not - and this will not only make your life more expensive it will cost you a lot of jobs in the export industries what can not compete when the production costs of US products will go up.

so no exports + less domestic sales leads to LESS production and less production leads to even MORE expensive production costs because this costs automatically will increase with lower production numbers.

can you calculate that for us stupids and tell us HOW that can work ?
