Acting For the Gallery

The gallery actors
 

when US industry noticed
China was a cheap place to produce their stuff
they moved the whole production to China.
This was beneficial for both, except the American workers
who as usual no one listens to when a pair of Jeans
are affordable. 
Now the USA and China are squabbling like relatives 
having a falling out over the right of way.
But both countries are hopelessly entwined they can´t
thrive without one another,
So, what we see is a play for the gallery not to be taken 
at face value.
