Not to pick a fight (though it's tough not to in this thread...), don't most capitalists believe in global trade?

I think that a hard-hearted capitalist would say it's a consumer's job to search out the most value for each dollar spent - that incentivizes brands to deliver their products at the best combination of high quality and low cost that they can....regardless of coutry of origin.
