the best form of supporting American workers is by giving them education.

the earlier, the better. otherwise, it is a losing battle.

the us population is about 280 mill.

Latin America's population is roughly 380 mill
China 1.2 bill
India, about 1 bill.
and so on....

the odds are against battling the "quality job" war based on "increasing pay" on low skill. it HAS to be won based on education, skill.

and there is no chance of "stopping" corporations from "moving" the jobs else where... why ? because foreign corporations WILL do it anyway. allowing US corporations to do what they are doing at least, sets some sort of "minimum standard" that other companies follow sometimes.

again, i am not saying: "this is the way it should be", i am just pointing out "how it is at present" (and why i think it is so).
