That's a common but false claim also. Maybe I'm too old but guess what ? The US existed twenty years ago. We did fine. In fact, we did better twenty years ago than we do now, before we had the "advantage" of "cheap Chinese goods."

If we could turn back the clock to 1985 we'd be in Fat City.

Of course, we'd have to eliminate Wall Street, the major cause of American financial problems for the past two centuries, but the vast majority of American lives would be greatly improved by that action. That's one reason it's hard for me to get worked up over the WTC destruction. I just wish they'd hit Goldman-Sachs et al instead

If all you consider is labor it is cheaper to make things with expensive American labor. I could easily replace a 500 worker Chinese factory with twenty Mexicans. Swear to god, it's true.

"SnappySammy"]Many lawyers are Jewish. so no surprise.
Because the above post inflamed my curiosity I looked up how many of the 44 US Presidents were lawyers =27.
Scroll down the list and it looks like nearly half were lawyers.( How Many were Jewish lawyers
SO How many of the 27 presidents who were lawyers were also Jewish....

Seems off topic but if people read the thread they will see the subplot.

Sammy It caught my curiousity as well... (Ref: my posts above).

In wiki Q and A. No idea if it is right or someone's humour.

A majority of our presidents have been Jewish. The first Jewish president was none other than the father of our country and our first president, George Washington. All of our Jewish presidents have changed their last names to avoid anti-Semitism. For example, Abraham Lincoln was born Abraham Linkenstein[/quote

Your question contains a false dilemma.

That's not the same as you see it. About 60% of all these goods manufactured under American brands and owned by American companies. So, do you think they will voluntarily refuse to shake "money tree" of American consumers? Ha-ha-ha... No.
Riches gains more, poorest sells last crap, that is normal capitalistic model of the World. And USA economic does not work anymore, wherever they ordering in China, India or Bangladesh.

END of Western World. Century of Asia.

rickettyrabbit wrote:...China actually "feeds" the US...

Yes, China support USA in fear to lost market, lost all the investments if US will going bankrupt. Understandable, all these things are not forever. Imagine, if finally China will sell more to other countries and supply own market.. here will be END of "feeding", end of "American Dream" and End of America like "world killing power, blah-blah-blah"

Remember USSR ? Clock ticking .. http://www.usdebtclock.org/#

The smartest part of your answer was "blah-blah-blah".

You think China will take that risk? Absolutely not. It would be incredibly stupid. It's a good thing for China's 1.3 billion people that you're not in charge.

Seems what US seek for conflict when all debts will be forgiven (smart idea). So China unwilling do that because at last it is peaceful (good or bad) society and they used to make money with work(hard and less paid), but no aggressive wars.

What is 1 Trillion Dollars ? Actually total value of US property market is about 10 Trillions USD, so Chinese "virtually" owning EVERY tenth AMERICAN HOME. You can imagine, what country called CHIMERICA.

Everybody who has brain understand what's trade imbalances mean: it's mean profit, development and future .. so why China need buy more and sell less (as stupid big brother did) ?

Yes, sometime i trhink why they just don't give these money to locals as coupons for increase consumerism .. but not, they continue support Uncle Sam, European countries ... etc.. That's the secret for me
