What mercantalists and socialists always neglect to point out, is that when labor is done cheaper, more capital is available for new US enterprises, creating jobs. Hence the fact that we have a 5.2% unemployment rate despite 25 years of screaming that "they took our jobs!"

Same lame mantra that is always regurgitated by apologists for global corporatism. Such philosophical babbling is irrelevant when national security is jeopardized.

I bet you're not counting in all the welfare recipients in that unemployed statistic. And don't forget to count those in that new welfare program NAFTA-TAA.
