We might need more of our agricultural products anyways:
With the Swine Ebola ravaging Chinese Agriculture - this means the Party is going to let average Chinese go hungry.
American farmers need to either find another market or find something else to plant. Being at the mercy of the Chinese is not where we want to be.
China to starve.
It’ll still sell and when the Chinese get hungry the Commie party will get another country to buy for them ,LOL
OK starve your people. With the swine flu in China your basic staple of meat is down dramatically, Where are you going to get your pork?
Guess what tofu is made from, Soybeans, which the US has abundance of, and China, not so much.
Wheat to make your noodles, US abundance, China not so much.
WE(USA)feed the world, and starving masses start revolutions.
We have other markets if you don’t buy.
Fook You, Communist Party of China.
close the US market to chinese goods and services. tomorrow.
This is unpossible! Fox Business News tells me that tariffs don’t hurt Communist China at all, they only hurt the American consumer. Communist China would NEVER retaliate...and if they did, it’s only because they just care deeply about the American consumer.
Don’t let up! For the small family farms, I sympathize. For the large “family” farms, depends on how “family”, they really are. Some are fairly large corporations, some of which still get paid for NOT producing. If course, China would rather starve it’s people than lose any money. They’ve played us for suckers for decades.
Looking forward to some really cheap grain fed beef coming our way!!!! Ethanol fuels should be cheaper too!!
Considering China is have a horrible time feeding themselves, this is not wise. I have heard the phrase, “Don’t defecate where you eat.” It applies to this tough guy stupidity.

But sounds like a few folks in Hong Cong aren't very happy living in their communist country.
I know of a sweet potato farmer in Eastern NC who is going to have to find another market for this years’s crop of second- quality he sells for dog food to china.
Chest thumping move. They need our agri products. They can’t even grow enough rice to feed everyone.
It sounds like China wants to reduce its population via starvation.
Agriculture and its related industries provide 11 percent of U.S. employment
Food accounts for 12.9 percent of American households’ expenditures
Food manufacturing accounts for 14 percent of all U.S. manufacturing employees
Food and nutrition assistance programs make up the largest share of USDA outlays
If The Donald stops imports from the Chi- coms their economy crashes
If he were to do that here, wal mart would crash
More than a fair trade
Dear President Trump: Please just cut to the chase and impose a trade embargo on China and then cancel the H1-B visa program and send all of China’s spies back home where they belong!
