China routinely has a half-billion people or so on-standby; to cover sick-outs.
They could theoretically absorb every job here, above the level of disinterested convenience store clerk, with the aid of India and some other players along the Pacific Rim and really put the screws to us. China aims to break the American hegemony prevalent since our 'victory' in WWII. What the U.S. needs is some basic protectionism, as have Korea, China itself and India in place. We're up against primarily ancient, homogeneous societies that have long memories and agendas.
