One small victory for our side.
Our competitor in China (I work in manufacturing) pays their workers $2.00 a day and $3.00 a day for room and board.

We received an e-mail that our company won a verdict. It turns out that the government of China was paying for all of this company's raw materials. This way they could "dump" their product and undercut our prices. Not legal. They imposed a tariff ? on them.

Our jobs are coming back immediately. We had half of our workers laid off. They will be back soon.
