I think Chaz's idea is that these new American jobs are going to the unemployed for probably minimum wage, not going to the currently employed at a higher rate of pay, so no, they won't become wealthier.

Intrinsic in his plan I hope, is the idea that the penalties for overseas labour are high enough that it is -cheaper- to pay an American minimum wage.
