The clothing/sock industry went to South America then even they lost the jobs to China over time. Competing with a country that devalues it’s currency is not free fair trade.

China is going to have a reckoning. I don’t think it is far off.

competing against a country that uses slaves doesn’t seem fair or right either. Go Trump.

China doesn’t really “devalue” its currency. It’s hard to devalue a currency that is already worthless.

Yup... devaluation of currency is wrong, which of course was the complaint of the BRIC nations when the US devalued the dollar in 2009 to boost exports. The problem with China now is not an undervalued currency but an overvalued currency. The Chinese government has propped up Renminbi because if it free floated it would crash.
