That's the whole problem. WE have become addicted to cheap products! And when you can import coffee cups for 10 cents delived to the dock and it cost me 20 cents to get em out the factory door in NJ, well I just can't compete because the consumer is going to buy the cheaper product at a box store.

I understand everything in the USA will increase. At least, we are not funneling more of our dollars to a foreign country. :) China has undervalued their currency on purpose. [Reply]  [No Email]
