Although I can see the truth of what you're saying here, living standards have risen overall as buying power has increased due to the very cause - outsourcing of production to lower waged countries.

My point hinges on perceptions. If people feel insecure, or worse off, then rational economic arguments may fail and be replaced, perhaps by some sort of "populist politics".
