China is now running a merchandise trade deficit with America of approximately 30 billion dollars EVERY SINGLE MONTH.

America needs to bring back jobs to America.

Not worry about China. China is doing more than fine. China is rapidly replacing America.

Bring back jobs right here to America.

No worries. The Dow has hit new highs and profits are soaring despite recession in the EU, the China slowdown and median income for the American family down 8%. How is this possible you ask? Check with the fed.
