I’d like to see you explain how adding, say, a 20% tariff to Chinese ping-pong balls will prevent a war between China and Japan.

Wasn’t my question dodge boy. Forget tariffs, can you ethically support free trade when one of out allies is at war with China? Answer the question coward.

I normally support free trade, but there has to be a line drawn in some cases....For example, I think Free Trade with Nazi Germany and Tojo’s Japan would not have been in the US’s best interest...It comes down to the question of whether or not we consider China to be a potential enemy, or more importantly, do they consider us to be their enemy.

Here is a follow up question. What if Japan and China get into a hot war. If Japan starts sinking Chink Container ships(yeah) are you going to cry foul? I most surely will not. So, whose side are you on? Free Traitors need to start thinking things thru.
