No, it simply recognizes a situation which already exists, because different nations have different laws and economies. If you want a world hegemony, it's up to you to find a route that doesn't inordinately harm specific groups (e.g. US workers) while transferring value to others (e.g. US companies and arbitrage groups.)
> If you abstract a skilled worker to be a countrys "resource"
Oh? Seems to create a "people don't matter because they're just objects" mentality :P
> In the end US consumers would be better off by having more/better choices.
Unemployed or underemployed consumers never have more/better choices.
