Your analysis is stupid because you fail to realize that the wealth of the
USA was attained by all the people working up to this time. But if China and
India and Mexico and other overpopulated countries absorb those jobs means
that they will be lifted and the USA fall into the ocean floor.
Mises is outdated and irrelevant. And Mises was not sharp enough to realize
the factor of Population size on economics. Mises, like you probably spent
more time on reading or watching Simpson than on reading real science.

I do not claim a theory on this. I claim only commonsense and observation.
At some point those Chinese cogs as you call them will be living your life
of leisure and you will be some drunk bum living in a manhole cover or
shopping cart in San Diego street begging for wine money.
Trouble with your ideas and Mises's is that you fail to put them into a
biological perspective of population size competing for limited resources.
Your ideas would turn the USA into a wine-bum homeless country...
And get a real name if you expect anyone to read your posts or even respond
and please do not reply to this post because I rarely read posts whose
author hides his name. They are seldom worth my time.
