A historical note: 100-150 years ago the Brits used to say that if 'every Chinese added 1 inch to his clothes, the mills in Manchester would never stop.' The only trouble was that Chinese cotton cloth was higher quality and less expensive than the Manchester product, so the Brits (and Americans and French, etc.) just kept selling opium.
