Show Answers

Lower the wage levels in countries with lower payReduce global productivity and total outputBoost the earnings of businesses or capital owners in high-wage countriesRaise the profits of businesses or capitalists in low-wage countries

Explanation

When workers move from low-wage to high-wage countries, it tends to increase the income of businesses and capital owners in the destination countries due to a larger and potentially more productive labor force. This migration does not necessarily lower wages in the origin countries or reduce global productivity.
