Ever notice how the “Free Trader” crowd stays away from these types of threads involving Chinese aggression?

no you idiot….we cannot control what China does…..we cannot….I know this interrupts your gay porn lifestyle to admit, but we cannot. Therefore, we have to craft our government to allow ourselves the most liberty for OUR people.

Again, we cannot control what China does. Period. Deal with it. My belief in free trade, along with every other conservative who understands anything about macro economics, is because it will maximize opportunity for all the worlds free peoples, including Americans. Our trade policy will not end China’s communism.

BTW, for your information, since you are such a lo fo, China’s economy is now much freer than ours and less communist than ours in many ways. That’s why I say the problems we have with mfg are SELF INFLICTED by our own liberalism. You are to obtuse to understand that and too arrogant to admit it.

Some of us need to wake up, make coffee, and read the article first. I’ll note that you are drawn like a magnet to slavery threads.

Looks like you have your hands full with Mr. Wright, I just thought I'd let you thrash around.

It is amusing that some "free-traders" have arrived, despite your assertion.

You’ve arrived but which side are you on? You say nothing because low life Free Traders root for our enemies. Here’s hoping the the ChiComs nationalize every US owned factory and kick the American pig dogs out of China. MAYBE then our traitors within will finally realize not every decision is life is based on pure economics.

Maybe we should rename it something other than the “South China Sea”.

Stop trying to hijack the thread. We don't have free trade with China, and we never have. It's not a free market, either.

Asking a free-marketeer to defend our trade policy with China would be like asking a protectionist what the appropriate tariff-rate must be in order to keep naval vessels from bumping into each other.

No don’t give China credit where it is not due.

China owns Chinese companies. American companies which make stuff in China do not own the factories.

Everything in China, belongs to China.

Bring back US manufacturing now.

“According to the officials, the Cowpens was conducting a routine operation done to exercise its freedom of navigation near the Chinese carrier when the incident occurred about a week ago.”

In other words, the US ship was acting belligerent and the Chinese ship didn’t give way

Again which side are you on? The trade imbalance with China is well documented. Do your Chinese handlers allow you to takes sides in disputed like this, or are you neutral - neutered?

Well, what the hell did you think that he meant when he said that “we are just weeks away from fundamentally changing the United States of America!” And apparently there is NO one to stop him. Disgusting.

Then a Chinese tank landing ship sailed in front of the Cowpens and stopped....

Have an icebreaker accompany them next time. We need to do studies, even in warm waters due to climate change, you know.......
