We win again:
Chinese Labor Shortage Leads To Our Profound Victory Over Left Wing Scum (http://www.nytimes.com/2006/04/03/business/03labor.html?ex=1144209600&en=a8d7fcab898e2b8e&ei=5087)
There are a lot of people who are skeptical of the free market and feel that progress is not naturally won in the world of economics, but the simple principles of Adam Smith and supply and demand are coming full circle in China.
"SHENZHEN, China — Persistent labor shortages at hundreds of Chinese factories have led experts to conclude that the economy is undergoing a profound change that will ripple through the global market for manufactured goods.
The Well Brain International factory in Shenzhen, China, an appliance maker, has improved salaries and benefits to try to hire more workers.
The shortage of workers is pushing up wages and swelling the ranks of the country's middle class, and it could make Chinese-made products less of a bargain worldwide. International manufacturers are already talking about moving factories to lower-cost countries like Vietnam.
At the Well Brain factory here in one of China's special economic zones, the changes are clear. Over the last year, Well Brain, a midsize producer of small electric appliances like hair rollers, coffee makers and hot plates, has raised salaries, improved benefits and even dispatched a team of recruiters to find workers in the countryside."
A middle class is being created slowly from the ruins of a Communist worker's paradise.
Right Wing: 1 . Left Wing: 0 .
Through painfully simple and obvious principles, the economy improves.
It took Karl Marx 42 volumes to outline a workable case against capitalism and a proper alternative; these 42 volumes helped create mountains of corpses in Cambodia, North Korea, China, and every enslaved satellite of the USSR -- but now it is being erased.
Our weapon is truth.
