A lot of what we're discussing here should be part of the WTO's consideration when it says you can't place a tarriff on goods. I know this is very "big picture," but if the WTO allowed nations with higher wages (which is a big cost of production) to factor at least some "minimum" wage amount into their tarriff structures, the wages in these other countries would likely rise over time (especially since raising their wages would avoid paying the tarriff). We can't demand a level playing field for SELLING products when we don't have one for PRODUCING products. MHO.
