I am just pointing out China now exports approximately four times as much to the USA, as they import from the USA, and that number has grown for two entire decades.

China now sells us more than 400 billion every year. And the gap is constantly growing.

China buys just over 100 billion from America.

We have exported such a huge segment of America’s manufacturing base, we no longer really make stuff.

What is supporting our economy? What?

America wake up.

Bring back American manufacturing, and American jobs.

Republicans get with the program.

Bring back American JOBS.

You say bring back jobs, which I agree would be nice, but you offer no plan to make it happen, other than insist that it happens.

You need some Sowell, my FRiend...

Here, find the section on “comparative advantage”.

You’re getting close to it with your analysis of China having 5 times the number of people we have. But you come to the wrong conclusion.
