Lucid argument.
What? Unrestricted globalization focks over economies. IF it wasn't for China/India opening up Mexico would probably be first world now.

Instead, hundreds of millions of Indian and Chinese people are no longer living lives of abject poverty, with hundreds of millions more who'll soon follow.

Is it some moral imperative of the USA to make sure that Mexico is richer than China and India?
No but I would rather have a nation bordering us more stable than nations which could become potential threats.

India could become our most powerful and important ally in the world. And it's not as if the U.S. had cut off trade with China and India that they wouldn't be on the rise to power.
Without outsourcing neither naiton would have an economy that actually involves something besides subsitence farming so your point is invalid.

If the CIA shoots enough business leaders they could be "convinced" to drop outsourcing. Outsourcing only happens because the US allows free trade.

No, I think if that happened the U.S. government would go on trial at the Hague.

Outsourcing happens because businessmen and businesses aren't chained by the U.S. government here. They can go do business anywhere where they're allowed. Do you value Liberty at all? Do you want our government to nationalize all industry to make sure every job that was ever here stays here? Have you ever noticed how horribly that plan fails every time its attempted in any country?

Sounds like you'd really be at home in the USSR.
Not the SSSR. Pre-1980 America. Basically I want the new deal and great society back.
