I’m just saying.

Last year Americans bought 440 billion in goods etc, from China.

Last year Chinese bought 122 billion in goods etc, from America.

This has been going on now, for four administrations.

Buy American. :D

The American consumer is only obligated to buy whatever brings him the most value. If I have to choose between a POS Government Motors vehicle and a BMW, I will chose the Beemer every time.

I think everyone here knows what the trade deficit with Red China amounts to. Preaching to the choir on one point already accepted is omitting the other dimensions of the picture.

Furthermore, since onerous taxation and regulation are limiting our “Buy American” choices and enriching the leftist politicians here, never mind unions contributing to the detriment of the quality of American goods (which is why I’ve been driving Japanese cars for some time now), continuing to focus solely on buying American products will not enrich the country and will impoverish the consumer. So don’t forget “buy American plus” many other things.
