Conversely, the central-planners will be here to explain that you are entitled to a "living wage," and the only answer is government intervention. I love strawman fallacies.

No one said anything about central planning, that's another red herring, akin to the buggy-whip argument. It's quite likley that your nonsensical message traveled to FR over equipment my employer builds (or used to build, when it moves offshore). I guess you would rather the Red Chinese build the systems on which you depend. Or perhaps intelligent individuals like myself could be herded into labor camps to increase the bonuses and stock portfolios of our corporate overlords

On the contrary, I want the government to butt out.

No more taxpayer money going to fund organizations like the OPIC or Import-Export Bank, who make their living facilitating the export of US jobs. No more H1Bs etc.

No more corporate welfare.
