No minimum wage or a very very low one and a lot less business killing regulations making it very expensive to run a business

In other words, the end game of globalization, where North Americans and Europeans works for the same pittance that they do in Asian countries. Yeah, there are some problems with that:

Or not work at all
That because the Asian government devalue the crap out of their currencies
No as I have stated the currency devaluation will eventually catch up with the government and its people and then you will see a Venezuela or an Argentina circa 2002
If there is legitimate demand than there wil always be supply

Agree. Very difficult for Euro & U.S. small businesses to pass the cost of higher wages, complicated taxes strategies, Obamacare, and regulation administration through higher prices to consumers. Today large international companies with close relationships in Asia, teams of lobbyists, and tax lawyers have advantages
I suspect Asia is like the wild west for international businesses - few regulations, lower wages, corruptible politicians. The current leadership Euro & U.S. have been focusing on the wrong issues for too long now. You'e fired!

Asia is a bit wild, sort of. The US FTC anti-bribery laws have put US companies at a disadvantage compared to those not under such tight controls. (Russians, and smaller countries not in the EU). Pay to play...or go to the back of the line and wait your turn for less lucrative deals.

Accept that's a bad thing for the worker. They live in a company owned tenement that they pay the company to rent. Work shit hours and produce shit products to that the multimillionaire can make a 50% profit on his item. What the Asian (chinese, and south east asia) job markets are is what coal mining use to be I'm the US. Families stuck in the industry forever indebted to the company.

No one forced them to take the job ... besides being unemployed is even worst
