How low will wages go before our government begins to consider the economic welfare of her citizens?

Steve C asked:

The general level of wages in the USA continues to decline in line with the export of jobs, factories and industries to foreign countries. The government insists that American companies meet certain safety, environmental, regulatory and political regulations, but place no such restrictions on foreign firms. Our government claims that this “free trade” is good for world, but what about America?

The issue of illegal immigration contributes to our declining wage scale, but our governmnent refuses to do anything about the illegals whose sheer volume have cut a wide path of economic distress through millions of good paying jobs. I once had many friends who worked construction and made enough money to buy a house and raise a family. Today, one must be a job foreman in order to provide the same standard and then must be bilingual in order to be considered for the job.

It appears the moneyed powers who control our governmnent and profit from our distress have a firm lock on our future.
So many pompous and arrogant Americans—you have completely missed the point of the question. You deserve your futures!
