It is the cost factor that worries me. Can we complete on a cost basis and avoid paying our people 3rd world wages? At times, I am skeptical. At one time, the American middle class was the envy of the rest of the world and we were elevating their standard of living. Now I fear that there are competitive market pressures that are pulling our wages down to their level.
