43. I'd be glad to send them foreign aid, as long as we get our jobs back FIRST.

Foreign aid to modernize their factories so they're no longer polluting like crazy.

In the end, though, China doesn't want any of that - because all of this would also drive up production costs so high that nothing would be worth outsourcing there.
