Those jobs will soon be eclipsed by the "Service Sector" jobs that are being exported. Soon we'll have nothing but a nation of CEO's.

What can reverse the structural change?
We were talking about this and the Chinese currency issue. And the fact that there is a huge logistics monster behind all the mic(madeinchina) products. WMT is a 220B monster whose chief function is to be a warehouse for mic products. What natural event will break this monster?
The rise of a middle class in China and India, and the subsequent increase in energy use. The logistics monster with ships and containers and ports and $100K longshoremen, can be brought to its knees if crude goes up permanently to $50?
