China is increasingly eating our lunch, and cheap labor is one large reason why.

If a skill is rare it will naturally command a large salary. If a skill is commodity it will drop to the floor, but if we prop it up, then those jobs will just flee the country just as they have done for decades.

Let the market set the value of the job, and simply give tax credits or UBI or whatever if those rates are too low. Keep those jobs alive and here.

Don't kill them.
