I’m sorry, that is not correct.

Our trade deficit with China has skyrocketed every year, since Clinton was president.

We (both parties) have sold out American workers. On this issue, Bush was every bit as bad, and Obama is just as bad as well.

Nobody is taking a single stand for America.

Look at our trade balance on the chart at the link. (it’s a government site, just fyi)

It is ridiculous how completely China dominates our trading relationship.

“We (both parties) have sold out American workers.”

I think this is half the story as corporate america went overseas for a better deal on taxes, labor law, tort law, work ethic, labor costs, and OSHA and EPA regulations.

The other half of the story is that the underclass of the USA has a terrible work ethic and really won’t work under almost any circumstances. Furthermore, govt. has also been a large part of the problem.

My reference was to Clinton's granting China MFN status.
