My two cents

    If we look closely at the issue I think the trend is the work is
    flowing from the countries, the currency of which fetches more
    currency of the beneficiary (so called "poor") countries. Also are
    China and India really "poor" with their foreign currency balance at
    the highest level, and ours in negative? Also probably most of us
    have not even visited / know enough about, China or India to
    judiciously comment on the issue. The work facilities, workers,
    education, output if cannot surpass ours here, but it is in no way
    inferior. The child labor is no more than what we have here in
    Macdonalds. 

    Since the most of the manufacturing is family owned so all family
    members get involved in it (due to large families) instead of
    "hanging out" with the crowd.
