Exactly. Because we wouldn't want them to have good paying jobs or anything. Better to keep them in debt and buying that cheap stuff. If they want a better job, they can go to college. ALL of them. And since college is hard to afford, the government can create a brand spanking new entitlement that pays for all college for everyone.

You're right, the societal costs of cheap stuff are almost nonexistant. Let's just move all manufacturing to South America. Our workers are lazy and greedy for wanting more than five dollars a day.
