If we exported as much to China in return for them dumping all their crap here, it would be a different story - it would be "fair" trade. But there is no fair trade. We export almost nothing to them, and their ships are overflowing with shyt every day coming here. And their quality sucks. What good does it do for a product to cost half as much if it breaks or wears out twice as fast. The "inflation" data does not take into account how long an item lasts, it only looks at price. This short-sightedness is going to destroy the united states. There are no positives.

First; would be goods cost American consumers less. Second; would be every dime of it goes overseas. It is a very simple way to look at it and you must factor in all the ramifications of both points to make any sense of it.
