The Shifting Jobs they are talking about isn't to China insomuch as it is shifting to the former Communist countries like Poland, et al. Germany got screwed in the Fall of the Berlin Wall by taking on the East, it puts an additional drain on their Social Welfare State, which hurts them against France & Italy but their work laws do not let company's take advantage of a low cost work force.
Well, as the EU expands and Poland et al are forced to implement Enviro Regs and other costly things like workplace safety regs, workers comp and the like they will be facing China, India et al. Example - The cost of production of a ton of coal in China - About 1/10 that of the US. Death rate per ton of coal produced in China - About 150 times that in the US (And maybe more since Chinese statistics and reporting are notoriously lax in these matters). The same is true with some variation in almost every area of so-called China Fair Trade.
