Which confirms you don't even have a clue as to reality, unless a government generated statistic is produced to make you happy.
just as you disregard government evidence.
I look at them. But a healthy skepticism is obviously warranted when they are in fact being politically manipulated to understate adverse facts. I think that my supposed "disregard" can be worn as a badge of honor.
I believe that China is in fact "governmentally interferring" not just within itself, but manipulatively influencing OUR trade. You don't, or are inherently unwilling to admit it...
I've never denied that the Chinese government manipulates trade.
Yes you do. All the time. You don't "believe" the growth rates either.
Unlike you, I don't want to emulate them.
Actually, they are emulating our own former (pre GHWB) historic policies. Only they do so far less openly, and are far more duplicitous about their mercantilism.
Your not wanting to "emulate them" confirms you have absolutely no idea how to oppose them. You are admitting by default that your doctrinaire position robs you of the flexibility to respond effectively. E.g., In kind.
Of course, you probably believe that Reagan was a liberal too.
No, just you.
Well, then you have a contradiction, since my policies are his. He didn't believe in being a trade patsie. You do. You believe in "win-win" irrespective of the manipulations. Reagan didn't.
He was right. You are wrong.
I'll be skeptical of your anecdotes and Chinese government statistics. You keep believing the Commies and your little anecdotes.
Yes you do. All the time.
No I don't. Not once. Never.
Your not wanting to "emulate them" confirms you have absolutely no idea how to oppose them.
They hurt their people with their manipulations. I'd prefer not to hurt the American people with your manipulations.
Well, then you have a contradiction, since my policies are his.
Reagan lowered tariffs. Which tariffs do you want to lower?
