WTO helping China Loot Caterpillar
americanthinker.com ^ | 10/04/2010 | Howard Richman & Raymond Richman

"Why can’t Caterpillar make a profit exporting mini-excavators to China? The answer is simple: China has a 30% tariff on all excavators. In fact it has a similar high tariff on just about every vehicle, be it a Ford car, a GMC truck, a Harley Davidson motorcycle, or a giant mining machine made by Bucyrus International."

The United States Constitution, Article I, Section 8:
“The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defence and general Welfare of the United States; but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States;...To regulate Commerce with foreign Nations,...”

The Tariff Act of 1789 was the first national source of revenue for the newly formed United States.

From the comment section at the link:

“How do you like them apples, UAW? No expensive union contracts where those presses are going. Well, you killed the golden goose and I suspect that there will be more such moves in the future. The government bailout of GM has only delayed their decline.”

Those high tech., high speed, robotic machines went to China. It’s that high tech., high speed equipment that’s putting Americans out of work. [Little irony and sarcasm there. Decades ago, our leaders began sending machines made during WWI to China.]

In China the workers don’t get to make a hostage out of their employers’ capital. At least not yet.

Thank you UAW. They would rather have no jobs than allow non-union ones.

If Government Work Camp, PhonyCare, isn’t totally blotted out, then The Statue of Liberty can be disposed of also.
