There is no shortage of slave labor nations, china knows this.
When you rely on the spoils of slaver and servitude such as we do, its
best to spread the risk around, and that's what we are poised to do with
this. It will hurt in the wallet for a time, but in the end, we would be
better, critical components will make their way back to silicon valley,
the rest of the stuff will spread out.
We actually have a great deal of bargaining power in all this.

The short version of this, is that for the first time since April
30th, 1975 (end of Vietnam War) the American people might actually
realize we are at war. They've largely been excluded from that fact
for almost 17 years now. This however, would be a much more
conventional battle. We are REALLY good at those, or at least we were
at one time.
The alternative is that North Korean continues their program to
increase their range, accuracy, explosive potential, and eventually a
multi-warhead (MIRV) situation. There have been some links in the past
between NK and Iran, so if NK ends up being successful, Iran would
likely be quick to follow.
None of this is any good.
