I don't think most folks will though.. just the same way folks overextended themselves financially.. US needs a big shakeup.. I don't have any easy answers but a closed system is not the answer.. The whole living wage thing will drive up costs and reduce selection in that scenario.. Almost like a form of income sharing..

I do think standard of living in US needs to drop.. but that will be the price of having more folks closer to the median.. less gap between rich and poor..
