and too much piracy of intellectual property (mainly through bootlegging) This is huge. Maybe THE single most important issue if/when China does start living up to it's economic potential.

Neo, It seems that the regulation of trade may be a bargaining chip to use to lessen the abuses spoken about. It might, at least, give an opening for more meaningful negotiations toward fairer trade. I still have not decided exactly where I stand on this, but something is sure to happen whatever we may think of it. I agree with you on the timing. With clinton giving away technology that can be used for weaponry, and the apparent spying, and stealing, of information, this is not the proper time to push such an issue. I still do not believe that organized labor cares a whit about work camps in other countries. All they care about is losing some of their cushy jobs. Good grief!! They may have to start working!! ~;=;o --haqi
