>>As a slightly related answer; China is buying up resources around the globe - including from us - and shipping us back crap. Plastic junk. Pretty good business model. <<

Some of what they return to us is junk. The MacBook Pro I'm writing this on, however, is the best portable computer I've ever owned, and I've had a lot of them. I also love my iPhone and iPad. They're all beautifully made, and manufactured to amazingly high tolerances. Of course, these things were all designed in California, so maybe that doesn't count. But China is now the third largest market for American goods, after Mexico and Canada.
