I remember these same lamentations about the Japanese in the '80s. I also remember how that worked out.Red apples and oranges. Free Traitors didn't ship all our wealth creating jobs to Japan. Japan was rich and we were rich. Our jobs were sent to Red China so now we are poor and Red China is rich.

Where did the Japanese get their money in the 80's if not by selling cheap electronics and cars to America in the 70's?
People bought Sony tv's instead of Zenith, and Toyota's instead of Chevy's.

China became more capitalist in the last 20 years. We became more socialist in the last 20 years. The difference in our relative economic gains during that time is a direct result.
