Can anyone explain to me how you get around greed like that in Capitalism?
If Americans laborers want to maintain their economic disparity, there are two paths.
One is protectionism. The biggest benefit of maintaining this ”trade war” is not that we will get a better deal, it's that it add enough uncertainty to global labor arbitrage that loss aversion make US workers appear the ”safe bet”.
The other path is higher productivity. In order to pay Americans orders of magnitude more than workers in other countries, they need produce orders of magnitude more. This means, better training and better machines. It's not an accident that computers and networks have both been the dominant machines of the past couple decades and working to create and use them has been accompanied higher compensation.
[EDIT: I encourage downvoters to explain why they downvoted and point out what assertion I make about worker exploitation in the U.S. is not empirically verifiable.]
