Hi, Sometimes in life,one finds themselves in a position where the "foreman", "management" at work is a complete Jerk. They are too aggressive, overbearing and downright insulting. If one has a family to worry about, they bear through it as long as possible, biting their lip, lowering their head and suffering for the good of their people.'"The Foreman, Manager" knows the opportunities for other sources of income are limited and finds itself taking advantage of the fact, possibly not even realizing completely the damage being done to management /employee relationship. All the time, life goes on, the employee looking, thinking how to get out of this situation without causing too much suffering to his own. Sometimes a point is reached where the individual can't take it anymore regardless of outcome and walks. Sometimes the employees"organize", and threaten the whole operation if changes are not made. Sometimes the employees who organize will either demand the removal of the offensive "foreman or management or shut down the whole operation indefinitely. Sometimes the employees have even been known to create their "own operation" with control collectively placed in a board made up of themselves.(This is what I think is happening) My point is ,when America falters,things will be remembered, as this source of income is lost ,temporarily at the least, isolationism and shunning of the "aggressive one"(including their currency) may occur.The purpose in life of Asian nations is not to supply cheap goods to America and make her stronger and richer. Their purpose in life is to find a way to allow their own people to purchase their own products and increase their standard of living. As long as America appears to be helping in achieving this ok for the U.S., when it appears they are no longer as great a benefit as they were. Watch out dollar.
