So it's really whatever that works between a tech and a customer that is "fair". What is NOT fair, in my opinion, is government policies that allow predatory marketing by overseas suppliers to put our factories and workers out of business!

P.S. If our government did not subsidize "Big Oil", and instead forced it to pay for the environmental damage it causes, the cost of shipping things from overseas (in ships that burn nasty "bunker oil", especially ) would greatly rise, making domestic production far more competitive!
