John,

First you call Americans overpaid dummys, and then launch into some relative thing where all boats are being lifted. Which is it?

It was a hypothetical example. I don't know have the actual numbers. As far as overpaid, if you are the only game in town, you can afford to overcharge and be overpaid. But that premium is disappearing as bigger and begger percentage of worlds population is competing on more equal footing.

Of course not. But if not a zero sum game it's a competitive world for resounces and exports. I prefer that the US standard of living be higher than Slovakia... call me a bigoted patriot.

Yeah, but we will have to fight for it and win it, since we are no longer the only game in town.

Next thing you will be wishing for a world government. Maybe the UN should take over?

No, far from it. What makes you think that from the my post?

Joe
