Job Layoffs: Are We The Problem?
You know, we all talk a good game about keeping job positions
in America and stemming the tide of illegal immigrants who pour
through our borders at an alarming rate. But are we really
willing to change our lifestyle, to put our money where our
mouth is?
We love bargains so we buy the lowest priced goods from clothes,
to electronics, to household furnishings. We have tags on
everything we own: "Made in China," or "Assembled in Mexico." We
could insist on only purchasing items manufactured in the United
States but then we would have to pay more, a lot more.
For Americans to be willing to take the jobs that go to illegal
immigrants, pay rates would need to be substantially increased.
If a living, above-the-poverty-line, wage was paid for such work
as restaurant helper, motel maid, farmhand, day laborer,
swamper, furniture assembler, airplane ramp crew, custodian, and
fast food worker, all of our goods and services would cost more,
meaning that we'd have to give
up many of the things we take for
granted.
Companies have to maintain a robust bottom line to stay in
business. They adjust their prices according to the cost of the
goods produced. It may not be very philanthropic or humane, but
it is plain, basic economics.
When decent jobs are hard to come by, it is very tempting to
blame employers for sending their jobs overseas. It is much more
difficult to look at ourselves and admit that our own
consumption habits and needs are the driving force.
