And moving factory-type unskilled labor to the third world allows Americans to focus on better jobs where we do have a global competitive advantage.
Moving unskilled factory labor offshore means that our below-average urban citizens are cut off from the only work that they are capable of doing. "Better jobs", whatever you mean by that, are not available to them because they can't be trained.
WE ALL win. Everyone saves money, and everyone is able to work at a task/job/skill in which they excel and work more efficiently than others.
No, we don't all win. Some Americans will never excel and work more efficiently than others. It is in the nature of being below average. (Half the American population, if we're being honest.)
We can let them starve, or we can support them on welfare, or we can get them their unskilled jobs back. But that's about it.
