15. I was thinking in terms of what has been done here in the states will eventually be repeated in
China as cheaper sources of labor are identified/available. One of the problems with unregulated capitalism is in its worst form it leaches off societies rather than benefiting the general populace over time. That, is what we now see occurring here in the states. In China/India, that might have a different twist to it ... It will be perfectly fine in the beginning.
