Of course, Hooters will have to import waitresses into China, since East Asian women don’t have the figures for it.

Hooters is based in Atlanta, Georgia, not Alabama.

Greedy businessmen, corrupt politicians and cheap American consumers are to blame for the rise of China. They sold out the US and created a monster in the process. We should have taken out China, Japan and Russia when we had the chance. Now it’s too late. Asians will rule the world, and it’s not going to be pretty.

Hooters will do fine as long as they don’t fly Southwest. :D

Stan – Call the police and tell them you are in a mindless drug induced rage!!! Do you have no brain at all capable of anything deeper than randomly pulling together headlines and prejudices from the far past… We did take out Japan and they are now one of our greatest allies and trading partners. Russia, broke away from communism and they are becoming a major free nation. No longer a major nuclear threat to the USA. China is also embracing modern business practices and using their human resources to great advantage. Their products are inexpensive, of high quality (usually), and in great supply…

All “you” have to offer is dumb bigotry towards Asians… If they took your job away, it’s because they “are better” than “you”… Maybe there is a poor illegal alien somewhere trying to send $20 back home to feed his kids you can go pick on for your “jollies”…

Shark says: “China is also embracing modern business practices”.
You mean stealing advanced technolgy, spying and buying votes for the Clintons?
What you call “human resources” is actually more than a billion very poor people willing to work for pennies.
The trade deficit with China keeps growing and we are becoming more and more dependent on a hostile country. Not a good policy.
