      None of this has anything to do with outsourcing labor other than that you’ll have way more dollars than if you were a subsistence farmer.

        outsourcing labor

        if americans are using their time to find the cure for cancer someone has to produce food, someone has to mine the copper, someone has to etc… exploitation, the outsourcing of exploitation is a given in a capitalist system. if you are a subsistence farmer no cure for cancer for you in a capitalist system.
