We'd all be walking around with surgical masks the Chinese have to so often do.
Whoa! Stop and think, jj. Masks are WAY CHEAPER than environmental regulations. We need to consider environmental issues from all angles. China's policy may be more cost effective, making them more internationally competitive. At least in the short run.
This doesn't look all THAT bad. People can still get around all right.
