I think you misinterpreted what I said about Taiwan, that is explotation on the
part of American based corporations, not the fault of the Asians.  As far as I
am concerned if somebody makes a better product I'll buy it!  U.S. corporations
have always used underdeveloped countries for cheep labor, before Tawian it was
Korea, and before Korea it was Japan and now that Japan has surpassed us in the
home electronics market we no longer import their consumer products because our
government raised the tariffs on Japanese made consumer electronics until they
couldn't compete, that's "protectionism" and the Reagan/Bush administration lie
about it!  -=Robert=-
