And WHERE do YOU shop?

There are many stores where many things are NOT "made in China"!

Is your food "made in China"?

How about the gas you put in your care?

Granted, there ARE, indeed, many kinds of manufacturing concerns ( shoes, some furniture, some fabrics, etc. ) that haven't been in existence for many decades; however, they didn't all go to China and many were lost before you were out of diapers, I bet.

You are not only a political naif, but appear to not know much history.

And as for China's military...that was.is only to be expected, due to China's "one child" policy, which reduced the female population by extreme numbers.

No.

There are specific parts of our economy which have not been taken over by China.

Food. Food is very much an American product.

We buy a lot of food, because everyone needs it every single day. Most of it is grown right in the US.

So we do not have a deficit of food.

Oil we are pretty well set up with.

Good examples, and yes they are predominantly American.

However you are wrong about “one child”. That was ended several years ago.

And our trade deficit with China is simply MASSIVE. Go into any retail store, in any city, in any state in America.

Pick up something and look:

“Made in China”.

Go to hardware. Look at all the tools.

“Made in China”.

Clothes?

“Made in China”. Though there are now some countries under-cutting even China now for clothes.

Look at appliances.

“Made in China”.

Look at sporting goods.

“Made in China”.

Not good. Not good at all.
