Roberts coined the phrase: 'global wage arbitrage', some twenty years ago summing up the ability of advanced nations (esp. USA), in absence of the gold standard for international settlements, to trade imported trinkets for good paying manufacturing jobs.

That fact lies at the heart of everything which is wrong with the world spawning all the imbalances in every economy and every market.
