So are you saying if you hire a foreign remote worker, they should be get the same salary as a US worker? Moreover, how could paying a standard wage for a country ever be considered exploitation?

You’re saying: we’re already exploiting foreign labor to some extent, so why not do it more? What kind of logic is that?

The global labor trade has proven a disaster for decades on end. It has destroyed the American middle class. There is no moral justification for any of it.
