The West in general, and the US in particular, will soon reach an unsustainable point where simply too much stuff is made elsewhere. Naturally, just as for decades media (and hence people) looked the other way, the abusive labor conditions that made Walmart and our $400 computers possible will now become front and center of more and more news stories.
