This is kind of like the content I studied this winter. How the economy isn't really a reflection of the stock markets, and visa versa, and global economies colliding. These of course, aren't the Reagan years, so in that way, history doesn't teach us as much as we'd like.

On a personal note, yes, we all use Chinese goods. I just think on a grander scale, if we could measure the energy used to produce, package and ship cheaper products and divide it by the product's life span, that we would be better off producing superior products at home that last longer.
