I wonder when they're gonna start worrying about our economy instead of everyone elses on the planet.Who gives a damn if theirs no work in China. The schmucks don't import hardly anything from here no how. Sorry but it's a sore point as every day another freind tells me they got laid off as their job has gone over seas. Ron
