Then neither is water being sold at less than full, free market value. You can't logically have it both ways.

- HDThoreaun 3y agoThe overseas are selling their labor at full market value. Not sure what you’re implying.
- Paul-Craft 3y agoI'm saying I don't give a damn if or whether they're "selling their labor at full market value." If that "full market value" is $2/hour or something, then, yes, they absolutely are subsidizing the product they're making. And you know there's a huge power imbalance between employer and employee that's at work here as well. Magnify that times a bunch when that employer is a rich, overseas company that can offer what would be starvation wages at home, but princely wages for the folks in Asia, South America, or Africa.
