Reply #118: "there is no global solidarity movement"

And that's why people who take jobs that require an English language capability they don't really have, or technical skills they don't really have, or something else they don't have shouldn't expect solidarity when the job they have means someone in the US, who *does* have the language and the tech or other skill, is out of work or packing groceries for minimum wage.

You won't find jobs being exported from other countries. They have more socially-oriented thinking. Their politicians know that they'd get canned and maybe even strung up to a lamppost if they allowed jobs to be exported or competition imported when people are out of work.
