Who needs to clue in?

When the cost and expectations of average standards of living gets down to about $5US/day, then we can bring up this issue of "Buy American". Until then, sorry, but the Chinese will continue to strive.

People can't expect to have these $50,000+/yr blue collar middle-class jobs with benefits and a pension fund anymore because China's just going to squeeze your employer out of the market. That's why GM failed.

That's not meant to be a joke, just that the joke's on you. It's a sadistic truth, and you can't spell sadistic without "sad".
