I hear your point there, you’re not wrong, but it does lay the blame at their feet then sort of back away from the stance.

The fact is, most people won’t read it all. They’re just going to see “blame India and China!”

“Phew, at least I’m off the hook.”

I don’t even like to admit the idea of the above but based on the last month (and let’s face it, very long time before that), people are willing to jump to all sorts of conclusions.

Hell, maybe I did about it sounding racist! But I don’t know the intent behind every message I read. I’m just feeling very skeptical and cautious.

You make some very good points. Being sceptical and cautious are important skills to have in this modern world :/
