You accept, even seem to welcome, the diminishing prospects for the middle class. You are a young man, I am an old man. Info: we never used to think that way in this country. That's what made us great.

I don't welcome diminishing prospects for anybody, but if the US middle class is going to make $35k per year instead of $45k, and 1 billion Chinese and 1 billion Indians are pulled out of poverty, it's probably a good thing. Americans are no more "entitled" to wealth than Chinese and Indians. If those two groups are willing to work, they deserve their pay, and the result is American wages come closer to the world average (in other words, lower).

Why do you care so much about American wages but seemingly not so much about non-American's wages? We're all created equal, ya know.
