Veering more off topic:

The resulting imbalance of trade due to importing goods to the US is
usually less if it's made in China since the cost is lower there.  I
think that a major problem is the disastrous deindustrialization of
the US.  I claim that the service sector depends on the manufacturing
sector and put such views on the Internet.  See
http://www.lafn.org/~dave/gov/collapse.html Financial Collapse by DL
(it needs updating).  So shame on you all for buying stuff not made in
the USA :-) including all the components.

Regarding democracy vs. non-democracy, I think democracy is usually
better but two examples of economic success in non-democracies was the
Soviet Union, and today it's China.
