Re: Obama wants to avoid 'trade war'
Yeah, well, we've outsourced everything else, let's just outsource all of it. Obama doesn't understand the value in supporting our country's manufacturing, what little there is left of it. <sigh>

Re: Obama wants to avoid 'trade war'
Obama cannot directly solve this problem. The blame lies on the shoulders of companies who wanted to save money by outsourcing labor.

Re: Obama wants to avoid 'trade war'
But it also lies on the government for not corralling the companies. (I guess that would be called "regulation" -) - Companies are, by their very nature, sociopathic. It requires a governance that truly is of, by and for the people, to offset that sociopathy and make it all come together. JMHO
