[Paul Ross]

So you would protect a US manufacturing base that prohibits child labor, unlike China and Vietnam, and a US manufacturing base that prohibits slave labor, unlike China and Vietnam, etc. That ensures a modicum of worker safety. That ensures that there is a retirement savings for those workers, I.e., social security. The money spent on China is *poof!* gone into the PLA maw.

I am glad to hear that you are "willing to make sacrifices". Its time to start doing so.

OK, I would; but what's wrong with that-- you're against this?  You might want to try rewriting this post.
