On a less contenious note, there was just a very good article penned in the UK media suggesting that we are nearing a tipping point and that things may be looking up here. The author made a good case that jobs would, for various reasons, begin leaving China and returning to the US. Now I'm not going to get into that discussion, but it struck me as interesting that we are all pretty glum about the end of the industrial might of the US, when the solution might be as simple as the pendelum swinging back a bit under it's own weight. The point is that with just a bit or work on our part we can still compete with any nation on earth.
