The population in the US is lazy, wants too much money, organizes themselves into unions choking companies and sues for nothing hence we have manufacturing in other countries and thats not going away I import and sell goods for a living and i love china. I deal with factories everyday ! These people work hard, make your stuff exactly the way you want it and haggle on pricing. They are very fair and are regulated by their trade commission The end result is i make lots of money and you get your products. Thats how life works now it all started by idiots buying cars made outside the US | |||

Meanwhile the Chinese would have nowhere to unload their junk and they wouldn't be ready to take up the slack for high-end domestic product in nearly the time it would take us to dust off the old factories. We have those guys right where we want them. edit: I agree our manufacturing sucks (except for like Raytheon and high-end stuff). I'm just saying it doesn't matter. | ||||

Hell, REAL China(Taiwan #1) sent us masks as a diplomatic gift. Theyd be happy to do it if asked. Asian manufacturing is a better deal for all parties than wasting lives doing it at home. | |||

how long do you think it takes to build a giant rectangular factory and start cranking out latex gloves using local unskilled workers? do you think our society will collapse while we wait for some building in Pennsylvania to start making bleach bottles? do you think we're unable to say hey other-nations-with-unskilled-workers-who-love-dollars, can you make some more beakers and dildos for us? you're right i don't have any money because i donate everything i earn to keep p99 going and i live my life like an ascetic i mean i still jerk off and eat red meat but otherwise it's very clean living i digress i know enough about money theory though to know that the entire world runs on the dollar and that we can just print as much of it as we want and everyone else keeps buying so much of our debt that if anything at all were to happen to us they would be holding worthless paper and also if anything happened to China we could just throw those precious new dollars at someone else until they sent us all the ballpoint pen caps we needed china wants to work. fucking lol. india wants to work, the philippines want to work, vietnam wants to work, mexico wants to work, brazil wants to work, do i need to go on? china isn't some magical factory land, they're low-skilled guys who make things just slightly cheaper than anyone at that volume. oh noes now we'll have to pay a tiny bit more, time to print more free money and send everyone another round of checks | |||
