Agreed. Now look at who controls the Governments.

it's not possible to grow rice profitably in the US either... what's your point? do you complain about the fact that rice farmers in the US are struggling? Why not? It's because growing rice is a job of a Chinese peasant who earns 10 cents an hour... same logic follows for assembling widgets like a monkey in some factory... that too is a job of some peasant in China who barely earns enough to eat...
If it were only rice fine.

The guys assembling widgets used to be your customers. Now it's becoming the guys at Boeing, Airbus and those putting men into space.

Unfair trade agreements prompted the exodus of manufacturing as well as more profits. Ross Perot was correct.
