There is no “NAFTA” deal with China. There isn’t anything even remotely resembling a NAFTA deal with China. Be serious.

And the ChiComs are an important trade partner. Sorry about your kids and pets....

That only proves how very shrewd Bush is. Once your children are killed off by poisoned Chinese products, he will just invite in millions of illegal aliens to take their place and then some. See? He has thought of everything! Bush is shrewd and we are (finish the rhyme).

“What, keeping the Chinese market open to us, while having them give us a great excuse to close ours to them? Sounds great.”

Yeah, and a few dead pets and kids... what the heck, profit is profit, right?

It’s brilliant. Much like a thread concerning tainted consumer products can become a discussion of illegal immigration, if you can pull it off.

*** There is no “NAFTA” deal with China. ***

I’ll venture a guess and say the poster meant MFN status.

It’s difficult to construct trade deals with a country that artificially values and devalues it’s currency to suit it’s own purposes.

It would be nice if there were a store that stocked “American-made only” products. I try to buy American when I can, but sometimes it seems like everything is made in China.

I figured they would find it in a dollar store. The one near me has all sorts of weird toiletries from China with misspelled words on them.

Proctor & Gamble, baby, for the win! Just one of the largest toothpaste manufacturers, if not the largest, on the face of the planet! American, I'll remind you . . . since you've forgotten.

No, but domestic manufacturing would have helped a lot.
You’re going to cling to the free trade as your ship just breaks up and goes to the bottom. Great to see you’re a total ideologue.

Which isn't even a trade deal.

But we've long since passed the point where having a clue is a requirement for posting on important issues.

Which goes a long way toward explaining why we don’t have a trade deal with China. Perhaps you could explain that to the other poster?

“Hey free traders... this is what you wanted.”

This has nothing to do with ‘free trade.’

I guess you’d like to return to the days of Smoot-Hawley?

That sure worked out real well.
