When President Nixon courted cheap manufacturing in China, we had a disaster. We closed factories in the Midwest and the South, throwing millions of US citizens out of work and onto unemployment.

At the time, I thought this was especially shortsighted. China subsidized manufacturing in China and US companies lapped this up.

Did China play fair? No! They flooded our country with shoddy goods.

We are now reaping the other half of the equation. We need to bring jobs back to the USA. We can do it!

At least China can't steal our technology unless we let it. Keep the industrial spies out of our universities and let's make our country bigger and better.
