not a panacea, but certainly viable. especially these days, i've read a handful of articles re: american businesses bringing jobs back home from china due to china's increases in wages.
And companies that are being smarter are hiring...

I just saw on CNN a few nights ago... a man in Atlanta opened a factory making CHOPSTICKS! lol

It turns out that a couple of species of trees that grow like weeds in the Southeast U.S. and are practically useless for anything...are PERFECT for making chopsticks!

So he's churning them out by the millions. And hiring new people and even preparing to build another factory.

And he's selling them to: The Chinese! Kind of a cool example of how Americans can make money selling TO the Chinese.
