This is only true if the economy is a zero sum game. It is obviously not a
zero sum game. The economy constantly grows. It couldn't grow if it were a
zero sum game. Your argument is shown faulty yet again.

You exposed your motives in your previous post when you indicated that
white people would be hurt by wage equalization, whatever that is. You use
big words to make pseudosophisticated sounding arguments to bolster your
apparently racist positions. But when examined your arguments are based on
faulty assumptions such as the one I indicate in the paragraph above. Go
away.
