How? We buy most of China’s exports and they buy, well, just about nothing from us.

U.S. Will Lose a Trade War with China

In another development, the Pope is Catholic too. Of course the US would lose a trade war with China. For starters, they could just stop buying our government bonds.

I don't know.

Seems that the world can live without cheap plastic sh*t imported from China.

Hard to live without guns and bread. America is the #1 exporter of food and arms. People will always need food and arms.

When manufactured goods become scarce America will turn again to manufacturing goods.

American workers are the highest paid and most productive workers in the world. We need to train people to run machines to sew together shoes like we need more almonds in California. Let them sew shoes together in Singapore, they do it cheaper there.

Nobody wins a trade war.

After we change Congress and get rid of Obama we can and must DRILL HERE, DRILL NOW. Spending all the money we are now sending to our enemies will create jobs. We must spend all that money HERE! Good, well paying jobs create a demand for quality products that we can produce.

China has about a BILLION to many people. It can barely feed its self and power its self and doesn't have enough WATER. There are 250 million people in the middle or upper class and 1 BILLION+ people living in abject poverty. Not a good balance!

China’s the ‘quick and dirty’ to Bill Clinton’s ‘stiffy’ right now; it’s bargain products can’t be resisted by America.

Nixon should have kept the door closed... I’ve always thought that... that was a big mistake.

It may be a question of winning the trade war, or losing our soul. Unfortunately the way to win the war, would be to use the opportunity of reduced/suspended Chinese imports to rebuild America's manufacturing environment. A few years of higher prices and inflation in exchange for a reinvigorated manufacturing economy and full employment. However our current socialist, union oriented, command economy government couldn't do that, and would only destroy what manufacturing we have left.

So with Obama we have a double dose of the down side of a trade war, and none of the up side.

The author believes that China can do without food. The author is a maroon. Granted, though, the free traitors in collusion with foreign communist enemy regimes do engage in wishful thinking about starving their own fellow Americans.

[familyop]

BTW, after the sovereign debt crisis to come caused by free traitors, they’ll no longer have their big, socialist government to enforce their unconstitutional, anti-domestic-competition regulations and anti-family regime of perversions.

I would encourage all of you to purchase the Matthews China fund. Frankly, I’m done investing my money in America. A country’s greatest asset is its ability to produce. We produce nothing. I’m putting my money in countries that actually produce tangible things. America produces census workers.

[Cringing Negativism Network]

Enough America-bashing propaganda.

Commence the trade war!
