I'm afraid that at the end of the day low costs is the only thing people want.
I'm afraid that at the end of the day, some countries , they will not make income , by producing electronics.
Some countries they will not be called master heads , because they think that they own technology,
as to was an object , or an monopoly that their own..
The Americans use to say .. we are in a free Country .. well guess what , now you are in a free world.
And you have only one option , to adjust ( by doing other products like farming ) or die .

Germany has an large car industry , and an heavy industry too , they live fine and healthy.
About me , I am totally unlucky , I had born in a City , that has lots of small metallurgies doing laser cut - water jet cutting, and any way they all working with metals .
And I have as only option if I work as employ to work for them .
Thats why I took the decision , to be always an freelancer Boss of my self .
