It is even worse.Your great-grandad had to compete with every other guy in town for a job.
Your grandad had to compete with every other guy in the state for a job.
Your dad had to compete with every other guy in the country for a job.
You have to compete with every other guy on earth for a job.
1. your job has to compete with outright slave labor. and it is enriching the fat cats not the slaves
2. that slave is probably a child too
3. aside from labor cost, domestic production need to comply with supervision and regulation. Things like OSHA (safety) and EPA (environment) and FDA (make sure your food isn't contaminated) and so on.
It is mind baffling how idiotic those people can be.
"boohoo we need more stringent emissions standards to stop global cooling." and then "you can't cut off imports from countries who do not limit their emissions"
or "boohoo slavery bad" and then "you can't cut off imports from countries who do that"
