I recently bought a dress shirt from Wal-Mart that was made in China. It really looks as nice as one of those shirts that cost 5 times as much which is sold in that store that advertises every week on TV. You know the one where you buy sports coat and you get 5 shirts, 3 sweaters, 4 pair of pants and 1 kitchen sink for free.
There is one problem with the shirt. It takes a herculean effort to drive any button on the shirt through to the other side of the hole.
The problem is that there is a severe shortage of Button Hole Space in China. This is the main reason driving China to be so aggressive. They are fully prepared to go to war to acquire more hole space. This, of course, is the primary reason for their current massive military buildup.
If we, as a society, would donate our excess hole space to some international do-good group and have them ship it over to China, they might like us more and we could save a lot of lives in the future.
Or maybe we could just send them a lot of small buttons.
Would I kid u?
