At one point you seemed to think I am pro globalisation, maybe you still do, but I will reiterate my view point. The problem is the West had moribund economies, with an aging declining population so there was a decreasing demand for products so economies were shrinking and living standards were falling trading with the East reversed part of that trend however the downside is the reduction in wages for Western workers. I dislike that same as any man however how do you solve the basic problems of the aging and declining population? Closing borders and going inwards only accelerates the end. My view is that rising Eastern standards of living and costs will meet declining Western wages and living standards at a midway point so we will not hit the bottom. I base this theory on observation of my friends in IT who were one of the first professional sectors to encounter the cheap labour of India. Their rates fell from about 10 to 1 to about 3 to 1 and have levelled out there to be fair they were paid double what I earned, I am an O&G I&C engineer, so the reduction has not really made them paupers and they still earn a good living and can get better rates that the 3 to 1 reduction for a bit harder work that they used to do, again they did not seem to have been unduly over worked previously.

Your view I believe, from reading your posts, is that America will swallow these costs and eventually become more competitive. Well short term that will hurt and long term I cannot see how they can compete with newer factories with cheaper labour in the East unless they cut workers wages and build new facilities but then they are just joining in the race to the bottom.
