Default Re: Did Anyone Read this Article?

I can agree with that, M, but we simply can't compete with the dirt cheap labor and such that other countries provide. I can't remember the exact product, but I saw a study where I *believe* China could pay to import steel from the US, produce the product on their soil, then pay to ship it back to the US for retail, and could still be done cheaper than their US counterpart could do it. Granted, that's not the fault of the foreign producer, so why penalize them, and I can agree with a trim down of the US auto manufacturers (starting at the top)...but is it too late?
