You are talking about designer brand labels which I agree with you contain
an absurd markup, but that is twisting what I said. What I am referring
to
is the majority of product lines that are not made up of designer labels
yet
allow Americans to live with an over abundance of products while a good
****tion of the rest of the planet needs to work an entire week just to put
food on the table. If you want to have this country get down to that
level,
then the fastest way is to either have our prices at home go through the
roof or have our wages drop to significantly low levels. You may disagree
that oursourcing of jobs has anything to do with this, but please tell me
how taxing the cor****ations further is either going to help keep prices
down
or keep wages up? That is not logical.
