When all US cryptography is imported from places like Colombia and the only
magic keys and back doors to the US economy belong to foreign governments
and foreign terrorist organisations maybe they'll get enlightened.

Bombay is 250mS from New York in the new world order. If your commerce
server can run in either country and the operating costs are far lower then
nobody will be staying another ten years. Many vendors ship their product in
containers from the far east to the US and Europe. Its not very hard to move
the order taking arm.

Its a good idea to remind politicans of this regularly.
