I thought:

(a) Revenue is MAXED when MC = MR

(a1) Producers seek MAXED Revenue.

(b) We - the political body - let the cat out
of the bag with NAFTA, etc. consequence: producers
have sought out the lowest MC locations and workers
in the world.

(c) and thus ... the last 100 years of (USA) labor gains
are ancient history. (which btw shows me that the
'Road to Freedom' model does not work in a global
environment - unless there is only 1 government - perhaps)

(d) sidebar:
*any* employee handbook from *today's world* would
give you a sense of this .... I call it 4th person
writing .... it is brutal in its tone.

When does this end - with respect to the USA?

When clothes mfg -- comes back --- to the USA - thats
the nadir of *it*.

And it *will* come back ... all things being equal.

Shockingly, there has been no political intervention
with respect to this shift in the last 20 years.

And I think this is because the DEBT SHIFT has
sort of blanketed the labor wage problem and the dramatic
shift in income wealth. But I don't really know.

John
