Yeah, the corporations chose child labor over American workers. So them CEOs could get more money to own you.

Companies "outsource" so they dont have to pay the American workers, they would rather deal with child labors and trash conditions in other countries.

They need that 4th yacht really bad!

Anti, why not show a graph of the rise in disability cases

Show the rise in government assistance.
Where would we get the workers
Take that ole red white and blue out of their hand and you could pick them up daily at Walmart

In what world do you think we have the resources to do it all?

The US is at a near record low unemployment, and still has about 10 million surplus jobs... no one is left to fill them.

Where do you imagine we would find the workforce to create all of these things?

Why do you imagine those companies would even want to manufacture here? Apple, for example, can produce iPhones in China where the lowest monthly minimum wage is $209 a month... which means more money in their pockets.

Would you be willing to pay 20 times the price for an iPhone if it was made in the US? Going from $1000 to $20,000?

People whine about $5 a pound for chicken, but how will you feel when it's all grown and produced in the US and suddenly it's $100 a pound?
