Oh boy. Was this even an economics class?
This is a different argument entirely, but let me put it out there anyways:
Say we have a factory in a 3rd world country, and Americans bitch because we pay them less, so the company pulls the factory. What next? The workers go back to the fields. Outdoor field work is harder than indoor industrial work. America was once an outdoor, agriculturally based economy too. People forget that we aren't forcing anybody to work in a factory, and the opportunity to do so, gives these countries a step in the right direction.
