How’s that Free Trade with Communist China working for us, now....

Perhaps you can explain to the thread how forcing everyone to buy expensive goods from protected domestic manufacturers (like General Motors) makes their lives better.

Buying uneconomically cheap goods from China does help US consumers. However it severely harms US producers.

If you want a country full of slick salesmen in power and fat dumb happy consumers as voters then sure - go ahead and buy Chinese government subsidized stuff from China.

But don’t be surprised when the US producers are economically killed off, have no political power, and cease to have jobs to offer.

Sooner or later there are only make work jobs by government and no viable producing businesses. Look/sound familiar?
