Look at history. The U.S. had high tarrifs all throughtout its history and it had limited government.

I never said that the government should control anything domestically. Just put the embargo in place (or a partial embargo) on china and other countries. The U.s. had a trade embargo on China and Russsia for 40 years of the cold war. Ditto for Cuba . so you are saying that we have to give China, Cuba and other rogue regimes complete access to America, America's industries etc. otherwise then we are marxists. ridiculous. You are saying anyone calling for stopping things from invading the U.S. like illegals, cocaine, China products anyone that says that is a Marxist. what you say is ridiculous. I am for the government removing the 100,000's of pages of regulations against U.S. businesses, and most of the the hundreds of thousands of pages of laws and removing almost all of the government agencies like the EPA, IRS, FEC, HHS, HUD , government schools, dept of energy etc.. You agree with Obama, Marx and democrats on free trade because it destroys the U.S. border and the U.S.

There is nothing in the constitution that says we have to trade with any country.

We have to limit things coming in the country and put restrictions on other countries. I am for removing regulations against individuals and businesses inside the U.S. but the federal government should stop illegals, china armies, China products all which are destroying or could destroy America.

What you say is ridiculous. That we or the government has no right to defend America or keep out illegals or foreign threats. That's what the federal government is there for. then I want the government out of the way of businesses inside the U.S.

The U.S. was on top of the world during the trade embargo against China . after starting trade with china the U.S. decline in manufacturing started and so has the general U.S. decline. Then the declines accelerated with Clinton's free trade agreement.

China has been waging economic war against the U.S. mostly by manipulating its currency relative to the U.S. currency which gives China a manufacturing advantage of 30 times as this causes companies to have to pay U.S. workers 30 times what China workers earn. So who would pay U.S. workers that much when they can pay China workers 50 cents an hour. And you all say that the U.S. makes more than china .

That's nice, but we're talking about your question "letting china steal hundreds of industries is good for the U.S.A.?" and my answer in post 194.   I still say you can't have my factories and you're going to have to go build your own.

Decline? We manufacture more and more with fewer workers. That's called productivity, not decline. Productivity is a good thing.

manipulating its currency relative to the U.S. currency which gives China a manufacturing advantage of 30 times as this causes companies to have to pay U.S. workers 30 times what China workers earn.

Their manipulation causes us to pay 30 times as much? Just when I didn't think your economic silliness could get any sillier, you exceed all my expectations.

Why don't you explain what the Yuan would be worth if they stopped their manipulation? Show all your work.
