List the ten largest exporters (I am looking for countries not
companies) of clothing to the United States. In other words, I want
to know which countries export clothing to the U.S. the most. Also
some numbers would be helpful so as to know how much more the number
one exporter exports than the number 10.
Thanks for asking!
