One interesting thing is with the high cost of transportation (within China and on the water to North America) it is going to be easier to compete on many items. I work for a company that sells products from China and with container costs going thru the roof we are now able to purchase some products here in Canadaas cheap if not cheaper than from China. Transportation costs are going thru the roof due to the overpricing of oil (you will NEVER convince me oil is worth what it is selling for now) and those costs are just going to go up.
