I haven't met too many people who have seen China firsthand who recite the Pat Buchanan nonsense

Most people I have met who travel to China for business get really caught up in the "look at me, I am so worldly, so global" act and they get all giddy at the pace of change in Shangai or excitedly talk of some peasant who created his fortune schlepping umbrellas that they seem to think they relate more to that peasant in rural China than a fellow American.

There are some profound injustices in China but this is not why we are having such a hard time competing.

Why did we never lose jobs to Soviet Slave labor?
