Hey Bonnie...... Well, perhaps his statement was "clueless" per se, but you have to admit that everything here (generalization) is being negatively affected. There's an incredible trade deficit between the two countries with the U.S. being on the losing end. Imports are indeed much cheaper due to China's lower production costs and subsidies.
Of course, in my view, it goes without saying there is also an incredible "dumbing down" of our government employees (elected or otherwise) that is allowing this to continue and even grow. And the American citizens seem to yawn, shrug it off and go about their business quite oblivious that we're not the strong nation we used to be in many ways. This dumbing down, in my view, filtered down to the FCC and how it has situated and affected U.S. Ham operations compared to the rest of the world. I think people in government are simply becoming "stupider" and I would never be able to begin to understand why. Just my opinion here.....didn't barge in to be rude, sort of just venting.
