SO as a consumer you benefit. Technology and such has made the world much smaller. You can keep your isolationist attitude if you want but the economy is global. The downside is that right now some of the trade rules are unfair but that's always been a problem. Your grocery bill is probably less and most of the things you buy are less because of globalization. You pay less for electronics, shoes, etc because of globalization. When there is competition the consumer wins. If we shut the door to say....FOREIGN owned automakers and GM had no competition from Japan then they would make crappier cars than they already do. | At 2.50/hr, I wouldn't be buying T-shirts, shoes or anything else, cheap or not. One less consumer consuming the crap they build and sell........
