Your point is correct. The vast majority of goods sold in

the USA are of

foreign manufacture now. I'm always a bit amazed when I

discover the

product I've bought is of local manufacture. Last figures

I saw said the

trade deficit between the US and China was something like

78-22. One only

has to watch container ships entering and leaving San

Francisco Bay to see

this--the incoming are loaded and way down on their

waterlines, while the

departing vessels have empty containers and are riding

high.

Actually, we're shipping a lot of 'stuff' to China. A lot of
machinery, that will be copied and then produced in China
for 1/4 the price.

has established a large niche there...
