None of those things are really any of our business or important to us.  Our unemployment rate is low and we need those solar panels.  Roll with it, we are on top of them and we will remain on top of them.

I guess i'll have to defer to your obviously superior knowledge on this subject.  I mean, China controls the vast majority of resources needed to convert to a green economy.  But if you say we're ahead of them and we will remain ahead of them, then I guess it must be true.  Nuttin to worry about I guess.

Compare their GDP per capita to ours.  Silicon is found in rocks all over the world.  Their "advantage" is that they're poor and they accept lower wages and environmental standards to purify and export their silicon.  "I sell more units than you" is not an advantage if your margin is way lower than mine.
My fellow southpaw Mark Brunell will probably always be my favorite Jaguar.
