Costs of goods always go up due to national inflation and market conditions, there is no situation where the costs of goods will go down.  Plus corporate greed which cause the majority of jobs to be shipped to India and China will always keep jobs low in most countries.


I'm not talking about inflation, I'm talking about real prices ...

Look at it this way, to give a employee a certain standard of living you have to pay for that standard of living, enough to cover their student loans, their retirement, and the taxes to cover government "funded" heatlhcare, retirements and higher eduction. This massive bloat on the cost to hire someone translates into the potential employee not being cost effective against international competition who don't have these costs.

If you push to have people retire earlier, or stay in school longer, you just increase the cost of employing people and drive companies to hire more people outside of the country.
