I don't think GP was implying we should expect it. But it's fair to point out that there's a certain hypocrisy in complaining about jobs being lost to overseas while simultaneously buying goods made offshore in preference to those made locally. Note that I certainly accept on average this has been a beneficial arrangement for both sides, but it's the unevenness of how the wealth has been spread around that strikes me as the real issue.

hypocrisy, perhaps, but a ready analogy might be the heroin addict who, lucid at the moment, pleads with you to send them to rehab.
