You are, imo, to blithe about exporting jobs that we need for our lower middle/lower classes. What will we do with people who cannot fit in to the new economy? Used to be you could buy a house on a union auto manufacturing job. Used to be you could get by on a job in a shoe factory. We need jobs like that. How will we have any jobs like that if we buy 5.00 shoes from Asia made by some guy living in a small room with his family on a few dollars a day?

I am concerned about slave labor in other countries. But I am more concerned about labor continuing to exist here.
