[QUOTE="soberups, post: 847800, member: 14668"] The consumer [I]isnt[/I] the winner if his manufacturing job gets outsourced to China. When we buy our cheap Chinese crap at Mal-Wart, we are collectively cutting our own throats and sending our jobs overseas. What would happen today if China decided to employ economic warfare againist us by refusing to sell us anything? Think about it. We have basically stopped manufacturing our own consumer goods. If China stopped shipping, we would very quickly run out of basics such as shoes, tires, clothing, appliances, electronics, etc. We dont make that stuff here any longer. Consumers need to learn that [I]cheaper[/I] doesnt always mean [I]better[/I], and there is a hidden cost to those lower prices that our grandchildren are going to be forced to pay. [/QUOTE]
