Will your economic opportunity policy hurt anyone? If yes, who are the losers going to be?

Losers will be people who sit on their fat asses, who think they're entitled to a high-paying factory job with a high school diploma. Winners will be people who are willing to work hard and learn new skills in changing times.

Economic growth is not a zero-sum game, with people fighting over a share of the pie; the pie grows with economic growth, something most isolationist, protectionist, anti-immigrant folks are ignorant of. Before Adam Smith's "The Wealth of Nations", people thought it was a zero-sum game, but he was a LONG time ago and it's about time people caught up to the value of free trade and population growth.

And the people who live off persuading people they've been wronged and the pie needs recut are just going to sit around and watch this happen?
