Emirates, when you consider the entire compensation package, is a significant upgrade in pay and lifestyle for many US employed pilots.
I also know a few guys that went there that got turned down at every major here.
As to your argument on the dollar. Of course if we continue to devalue the dollar we will ultimately be cheaper labor that a lot of the world..... The effect would be no demand for air travel so it would be moot.
