1) China Manipulates their Currency
2) China has no EPA
3) China has no EEOC
4) China has no minimum wage laws
5) U.S. wages cannot compete with Chinese slave labor.

BTW, the way have you ever called a computer help desk from overseas? They are worthless! I rather talk to an American that knows what the hell they are talking about and can speak English! I almost always get way better professional help from U.S. citizens then from India, Philippines, etc..

International trade is war with less noise. Fairness has nothing to do with it. While some are spending time trying to get the other side to play fair, I am busy beating the other side. Screw fairness, I’m here to win the war.
You will waste your life if you spend it attempting to elicit fairness from unfair people. You can’t make a good deal with a bad guy.
I live in the mountains. They aren’t fair either. They are dangerous and don’t care if I live or die, and I can’t get any concessions from them.
And I like it that way.
