What happens to our country (economically/socially) if/when our essentially sole-source of consumer goods implodes?

Personally, I have a sufficient supply of cheap Chinese made junk to last me for a while.

Unlike oil or food, where a supply interruption is instantly felt, an implosion in China will not be badly felt before other suppliers have had a chance to ramp up

I think the main problem with a Chinese implosion is that they will be forced to sell their US Government bonds, which means our government wont be able to find anyone to finance its deficit spending.
