Significance of FOXCONN riot:

Will this incident have any impact on your next gadget purchase? Probably not. You’ll just keep on buying one new shiny toy after another. What will eventually happen though is that Chinese labor laws will catch up to what we have in the West, and then the cost of your next smartphone or tablet will be astronomically high.

Obviously, if LQMT can LOWER the COST of production and manufacturing by changing the PROCESS, eliminating machining, etc., then the time is NOW, or SOON to be upon us, and APPLE will looking to do exactly that. And isn't that one of the major bottom line benefits to use Liquid Metal...lowering production costs?

good, then maybe apple and others will bring manufacturing back to the U.S. They can have all the dissension and rioting they want in China. Just bring manufacturing back to the U.S. so we can keep the profits and jobs here. The more they riot, the more costly it becomes to do business there. This is the best thing that could happen. The Chinese workers won't be abused anymore, costs of doing business in China will rise, and the jobs will come back to the U.S. It's called "fate."
