The US has a significantly larger consumer market. A lot of people would complain if they were unable to import cheap goods from China.

Yeah but it means they don’t get paid as much either as there is no wage pressure at the bottom.

You can’t have $5 T-shirts and also a $15 minimum wage.

You can’t have $5 T-shirts and also a $15 minimum wage and low unemployment. You can have $5 T-shirts and a $15 minimum wage and no jobs, but nobody actually wants that outcome.

The bottom earners aren't the people driving the consumer market. That's why they tend to advocate for protectionism.

with $15 minimum wage there is no need for $5 T-shirts.
