Well it's more complicated than that. We mourn jobs that are sent overseas. But a lot of things can be made much cheaper elsewhere and we as consumers benefit from cheaper prices. It's just in an argument about jobs, people don't want to argue the whole picture and the complexities of trade. They want their cheaper prices, and they want all those jobs too, and they want decent wages, and they want someone else to figure out how to make that possible. The other problem is all the people crying about jobs going overseas aren't the same people crying for wealth equality necessarily. So again, it's incorrect to lump everyone and every viewpoint together when it's really a huge spectrum. And on top of all that I would argue that arguing wealth inequality in the U.S. is fine because it exists in the rest of the world is a red herring. For starters, no nation, not even the U.S. is solely responsible for the state of the world and economies in every other country. And secondly, no nation is under any obligation to address the world's problems before addressing its own. And it's not effective to avoid the issue by shifting the scope around arbitrarily.
