Would any of you consider going to China and starting a factory? I would. But I wouldn't pay them that little. I would probbly pay them a lot more. Their money is like 1/10 of the US dollar, which means most people who have enough money to own a factory could pay them a lot more. It would be kinda of kool to be super rich somewhere with like $100. My cousin went there and said you could get a massage for only $7!!! You could make some good money there, in my opinion while helping many people.

Are you trying to say you want to move to a foreign country with a developing economy just so you can export it's cheap labor? Bravo good sir. Why don't you just get a job with Nike, or one of the many countries who are already outsourcing to exploit the native peoples of third world and second world countries just like you are suggesting. Seriously dude? Think about what you just said.

No I was trying to ask if anyone consider opening a factory in China. I was saying in the explanation that they are payed very little and someone from america could be very rich there. I was also saying that it would be nice to pay them not as little as their getting so they could feed themselves as well as their family. For instance many get paid a very low salary. Although, after rereading my post, I can see how it could come across that way. I edited my post so that it would be more clear. Thank you for you're criticism. That was not at all what I was trying to say.

So once again you forcing the same kind of labor that Nike is? What makes you think that what your saying isnt what Nike said? Your just changing the words around. Forced labor in china and any other foreign nation is disgusting. I hate these kind of people thinking "Oh I'll get rich by exploiting foreign countries." Plus factories would add to the already massive environmental problem, so I the people would probably rebel against an un-autorized factory being built. Then you'd be subjected to many lawsuits then jail time. So yeah........Your idea is terrible.

I dont think you guys should bash his idea.^^ It does sound like he's trying to exploit workers to get rich, but he's also saying that with more money, he could pay his workers more money to increase economy. But due to the massive population in China, I think it would be better to help the US economy, rather than another country.

China won't be a cheap place long term. The Chinese are deliberately undervaluing their currency which helps their exports but I think in the future they will let their currencies rise to market levels and enjoy a higher purchasing power that Americans lost with the devalued dollar. They are an up-and-coming superpower.
