...everybody wants to pay less for workers for products for services. Customers flock to places that charge less. If you pay fifteen bucks an hour for a worker you cannot be price competitive with someone who pays their workers ten bucks an hour for the same number of widgets.
...when it is declared that a worker is more productive he has to make more widgets dollar hour than his competitor. If he isn't then he is not more productive.

Liberals are like a "Slinky". Totally useless, but somehow ya can't help but smile when you see one tumble down a flight of stairs!
