Dear Preston: your arguement about bootleg is precisely WHY China entering the WTO will be a good thing. They will come under the laws and regulations of the WTO. You appear to have a low opinion of the Chinese. As a race, I think you will find they are more honest, industious and hardworking then many other peoples of the world. They just currently lack leadership throughout their entire country. As to fearing them, I wonder why. They have not been aggressive outside their borders in the entire history of their nation. (I dont count Taiwan, N.Vietnam as aggressive policies as they have long disputed where the border of their nation is) JDN

You may not remember when everyone feared the Japanese in the same way. It is always a positive for the world when any country increases the living standard of their people. As for catching up with the US, it will likely be a century before that happens, unless we really screw up. Jewel

I think the same can be said about Mexico.. or was said. Wages will come up. Entry into the WTO will reduce copyright infringement or at least expose China to further retribution from the WTO. Chinese made goods - yes - but not Chinese owned companies... Note QCOM, LU, IBM, HWP and other large corporations that have huge amounts of business with China today - that will only increase. We can't live as a protectionist society. AND the real point... if everyone other country is trading with the largest potential consumer in the world how will our US based business companies compete. Are you suggesting we forgo the - how many billions? - of consumers in China? Should we forgo India too? OG
