Unless we pull manufacturing back into the USA, this will not end well.

I don't think its legislation that drove the cost of living up in every developed country. And with increased cost of living comes demand for higher pay. Even if you removed minimum wage, there is no way that you could get people to work for $1.00/hr (and therefore be competitive with overseas workers). They'd have a hard time feeding themselves, let alone their family or afford things like a place to live.
