Despite what you see on TV and in the movies, we lawyers don't get to torture witnesses on the stand, we have to let them give complete answers.;^)

My answer is yes, it can, but not all by itself. There's a reason Americans are importing more than we export - our goods are more expensive than goods produced overseas. Part of the cost of goods is wages, part of it is taxes, part of it is the cost of compliance with government regulations like OSHA and EPA.

Ask Pearlie what happens when your country quits making things that people want to buy.
