1, Capitalist will take manufacturing jobs to less expensive countries. Jack Welch, the former CEO of GE is famous for saying, "The theoretical best location to build your product is on a ship so you can dock it into whatever country is the least expensive at the time".
2. Jobs taken away from people generally hurt the people they are taken from, and jobs given to people generally help those that get the jobs.
3. This overall results in "wealth sharing". Wealth is transferred from higher cost person A (American person) to lower cost person B (Chinese person).
Capitalist want to share the wealth. I can empathize with the Socialist. They want to hold onto their high paying jobs. I showed above 29 million Americans are the 1% of wage earners in the world. That is 29 million out of 9 billion people. Capitalists will help address that inequality by moving jobs overseas, lowering the standard of living of people in America and raising the living standard of much, much poorer people.

your equations are faulty - obviously you did not read the article I posted
just look at the walmart family, they keep the money
they move into a town, people who own their own stores get put out of business go to work for minimum wage and then get out on food stamps and can no longer even afford to have a home anymore and lose it and move to a slum, this is capitalism.[/
1. The article does not state that those people are capitalists. They could be kings, princes, communist oligarchs, dictators, the King of Brunei, crony-capitalists.
2. Walmart puts American businesses out of business, and provides much, much poorer Chinese people with jobs.
Yes, it will suck. The standard of living in Americans is going to fall dramatically. That is the whole point of "sharing the wealth".
29 million Americans are in the 1% "fat cats" income earners of the world, and all the rest of America is in the top 1/3 of income earners in the world. Yes, it will suck for these 309 million "fat cats" Americans to have to share with the 9 billion people on the world.
Hundreds of millions of people live on only a few dollars per day, and have no car, no phone, none of the multitude of goodies that Americans have.
However, this is humanitarianism and it puts a smile on our face at the end of the day

Is America the only country with the ability to generate wealth? Anyways I don't see how outsourcing jobs to other countries does anything to help the people here. I don't think it should be entirely banned for there to be some outsourcing, nothing wrong with trying to offer jobs and incomes to people in third world countries....but as it stands now it doesn't seem there is enough regulation to keep abuses like exploiting foriegn workers, neglecting safety conditions on the job and destroying environments/ecosystems so it is kind of a myth that this improves their lives. Sharing the wealth doesn't mean neglect the people here in this country to help Chinese people get wealthier...how then does that wealth continue being shared if it just goes to the Chinese? I can't help but think your idea would lead to the U.S becoming a third world country which I am not so sure would exactly solve anything.
