It is exceedingly difficult for a US interest to open a market in China due to red-tape and belligerence on the part of their government. Once they do, its' just a matter of time before China reverse engineers, and cuts into that company's global market-share. Our current trade relations with China amount to economic suicide. It also funds a fairly nasty socialist government and gives them increased influence over our affairs. Simply not true. It fairly easy for a small business to start in China or Indonesia. I know many who have done so in the furniture business. Big business has many more details to hash out and is more complicated. Believe me they welcome investment and business. They put on the biggest trade show and business event in the world every year. Business is not government, there is nothing more capitalistic than a young Chinese with some capital seeking capital. Most business despises politics.

Then why does the Chinese communist party own some percentage, up to 50% for some, of "free trade" businesses?

I was talking about the ability of US companies to export product into the Chinese market, and keep Americans employed...
Not our ability to throw money at them, and put American factories out of business. I'm sure they welcome investment. They don't welcome competition.
