don't worry, the free traders will be here soon to tell us that the PC and semiconductors are buggywhip industries. we don't need them, or their jobs. we have plenty of jobs here, Home Depot created 30,000 jobs in 2004, why do we need tech jobs?

Yes --- they must be showing up soon --- they'll proclaim how it's great --- like you said Americans don't need jobs, everyone can live off investments just as they themselves do -- and when you're living off your investments, it's good that prices get very cheap.

It's good when the dollar looses it's value because then we can't buy things from Europe --- only from China which is somehow much beter.

TRANSLATION:
IBM has Lenovo building it's PC computers for some years and Lenovo stole all the technology. IBM knew they would probably do this. So now Lenovo says they will build and sell under the IBM name and will pay IBM for that right. Lenovo reaps the profits as it sells PCs in Asia and the 3rd world.. eventually the US too.
