Cut off all trade with the Chinese.
If you see "Made in China" printed on something, DO NOT BUY IT.
Yet I do not wish to nuke China, the growth of our people there negates the option.

It's those extra steps that are the mark of at least some serious thought, and should be quite welcome in any discussion.

Production goes overseas because people prefer to pay less for most consumer goods and manufacturers try to reduce production costs in order to increase profits. As China becomes wealthier, some of the production will come back or maybe go to some other overseas country with an emerging economy. India? Africa? Russia? Trade barriers distort the free market and cause political difficulties. You have been globalised. Learn to be a citizen of the world.
