They have the population to fuel a huge work force.
And I am not sure if they have unions or not.

So yes I see this happening unless America gets off her big butt
and shapes up.

and how do you propose we do that?

Increase the number of work hours /week?
I don't think that's viable.

I think the relationship between the US and China is fairly healthy, i.e. they make all the cheap crap we use.

I don't know about outsourcing jobs to India...

On a side note:
With the current shortage of ATC personnel, I can just imagine getting enroute vectors from Bombay on a domestic flight.:lol

Sir If I was that smart I would not be here shooting the watermelon on a BBS with you LOL.
I most likely would be on the French Riviera nude sunbathing with girls half my age :D

Deus Ex storyline is coming to life.

Nanotechnology is just beginning.  By 2048, we'll have an economic collapse, a manufactured nano-plague will sweep the US.  The UN will control manufactured vaccine flow...  which will in turn be controlled by the Illuminati...  I'm first in line for nano augmentations!!!

I'm afraid of nanotechnology after I read Michael Crichton's 'Prey'

Michael Crichton is one of my favorite authors.
I loved eaters of the flesh to bad they screwed up the movie {13th warrior} it could have been a great one.

13th warrior was made after a book?

Yeah the book is 100 times better than the film.
I never got the feeling of impending doom in the movie like I did in the book.

Eaters Of The Dead.  One of his best book IMHO.
