I know it would cause downstream problems for the whole world for a while but how long do you think the Chinese Government would last if Australia stopped sending iron ore to them? Would a new Government be more reasonable? This matter affects not only our hobby but everything that comes out of China. IMO, It's high time we brought these jobs back and to hell with the accountants who only want to increase profits at whatever collateral expense.
