How to compete with China when the US and EU wages are really higher?
Simple- put customs taxes that equals the difference:

But in this case the state would collect the difference instead of some corporations that does not pay taxes like Apple or similar.
Not good for the lobbyist controlled governments- no money from corps then...

America political and economical system is parasitic and wrong- take it or leave it I wont explain why- the game forum is not the proper place for that, I just hope that the American people see that and change their ways.
I would post a video to support my claim:

If we start to comment properly about America the mods would need to close the topic since a lot of Americans will get offended.

America Economy cannot exist only in the Silicon Valley with couple mega-rich tax dogging corporations that employ only small bunch of people.
Meanwhile in Detroit- couple years ago there were houses for sale ranging from 1 $ to 5000 $. The same corporations that managed to create the devastation there are just silently buying bulk whole blocks property for pennies from the people with foreclosed homes. The Neo-liberarist system in force in USA is milking the people several times that way.

Before you call me USA hater- EU is not in much better position- they try to create USA mk2 silently and slowly because USA way is the best way to control the masses:

Otherwise for the rest Joey is quite right. Personally I am not left but I am not right as well I am rather fan of the third way:

Also a huge fan of Keynes:

There are solutions available but they are not in the interest of the people with the big money.

Official faction players that are often accused of elitism, never deploy them and have those weird, immersion killing "fair fight/dueling" suicidal hobbies. (yes, i've seen enough of those lolduels, where house military with overwhelming force on the field willingly loses a pilot in a duel. ffs.)
