Hey Gary, define lower wages. The average monthly income of Chinese workers stands only at around 80 US dollars, even less than the minimum income of two days for an American worker. This has incurred a drain of working posts in the US manufacturing industry. In the latest twelve months, cheap labors had earned China a trade surplus of 123 billion dollars to the United States, five times the figure as seen over ten years ago. Gary, do you make more than $80. per month? if so, are you "living large?" It's an unfair playing field. walt
