The problem with low wages is that the chinese worker, which is doing
the outsourced work, is working whole day, seven days a week for a
sallary which barely keeps him alive. Why? So that someone can buy a
$5000 suit, live in a house with 27 rooms and 9 bathrooms and with a
ferrari parked alongside 15 metre limo.
Everyone who is not bitching about this kind of world should seriously
think about what is wrong with him.
The problem is just, that the *real money* is not earned by work. Have
you ever heard of a company that outsources managment, lawyers, or the
marketing staff. They usually have much higher wages than engineers and
technicians, so for simple economic reasons a lot more could be saved on
outsourcing their jobs to cheaper countries... (I'm sure an Indian or
Chinese brain is just as apt to learn the absurdities of western
economic law.)
In the end the only way to solve these problems is by consumers: stop
buying the crappy stuff assembled abroad - just because it's cheap or
because the marketing is good.
Note: I'm not arguing against buying stuff from abroad; just punish
those companies that sell crap just to buy their bosses ferraris and
fire workers at home.
