re: "Quit letting them sell their crap over here and put some folks to work here making that same crap."
Nobody here wants to work for so little.
And the unions and regulators wouldn't let 'em if they did.
But I agree with you. We either hang together or we hang separately. We need to bite the bullet and stop importing goods and services from China.
I read a while back that motherboards imported from China were discovered to have a separate motherboard embedded within that was processing everything on the outer board, encrypting it, and sending it to external C&C servers. We shouldn't be trading with China on ANYTHING.
