Shift of technology, bull shit, it's called cheap labor achieved by the means of our government ginving China NAFTA and letting them set the exchange rate of their money to ours.
And don't give me this shit about us assembling it and making it cheaper, you may want to farm out our country, I don't
Huh? You asked this...

The url you showed me was iron workers, I only said what the article did on that topic. My focus was the cost and has been throughout.

We had this shift happening way before NAFTA. And I don't think the trade agreement with have with China is good for our Country either.


I didn't say we should farm our country out... working in the global economy has nothing to do with farming us out.

Now that you bring it up, mass automated assembly does make things cheaper.
