“I doesn’t bother POS globalists one bit that the Chinese are trying to corner the market in manufacturing and all that entails.”

Automation and robotics are the great equalizers, as operating a manufacturing facility in the US will become just as economically feasible as it is to operate a manufacturing facility in China.

We have learned from history that economies must not resist technological advancement as when they do fail to adopt new technologies, not only does their economy fail, but their nation fails.

Interesting. Do you have examples of nations failing due to failure to adopt new technologies? If so, please provide them along with the new technologies they failed to adopt.

When we import Chinese made goods sold by US companies we get the worst of all worlds. We pay 3rd world wages for labor and first world prices for management,engineering, marketing, finance, legal and retailing.

The reason why we are not seeing dirt cheap prices for durable goods imported from the 3rd world is labor is not a real big component in the cost of durable goods. The middle men make all the money.

We are destroying the economy for the lower third of the county to save 5% on the retail prices. This is suicide.
