War with China would be a disaster to "Free Trade", why the USA may have to start making things again! catastrophe!....
Why build up your economy, to senselessly abort it a few weeks from term?
The Chinese may be a lot of things, buy aren't aren't dumb.
The USA is not going to start "making things again" probably ever. The leftist unions, minimum wage morons and anti-capitalist socialists in charge of running and ruining the nation will make damned sure of that. It's all about creating dependency upon foreign goods and destroying us from within for these leftists.... and then of course, blaming capitalism for the resultant destruction.
