If the masses of this country were empowered by better wages, they would spend more and as a result our nation would prosper. This great nation of ours started going down the crapper the moment 2 things happened- tarrifs on imports were dropped and exporting jobs was raised..

Please re-read the second paragraph of your post, I beg you.
If we up/inflate wages, business lose money and the only alternatives to going out of business are to layoffs or "exporting jobs." Once those products are made overseas we need to get them back into the country..... so we import them! (tariff free) because we need them!
And by the way, in my eyes, our nation has never been in the crapper.
