“All labor markets in truly free societies are local”

Have some facts that support that? Otherwise that is a very large unsupported assertion. In fact, globalization has been going on for a VERY long time. Learn some history and you’ll trip to that fact. Here’s one hint “silk road.” See also “1492.”

DOL believes they are local. Every company that wants to import workers has to first advertise their positions at the prevailing local wage or salary rate. They then have to find creative ways to refuse to hire. Even the judge in “Miracle on 34th street had to conclude Kris was Santa.
Look; it’s tough to move for a job. This makes the supply of labor relatively fixed. It’s tough to hire from far away, easier to move the capital. The trick of business is, what guides the invisible hand of the market if the capitalist has no morals?
What did the silk road have to do with the Norsemen?
