China has some real problems to deal with. Next couple months should be interesting. Adventurism in the South China Sea wouldn't be a good idea at this venture.

China is dealing with a sickness that has nearly wiped out their pig farms, another sickness that is seriously reducing their poultry farms, and the Fall Armyworm that is laying waste to much of their food crops.

OK, the USA and Australia are two of the largest exporters of food to China.

How is this going to help their economy and food prices if they jack up tariffs on food coming from both countries?

Who are their other food suppliers?

The buyer has the power. US v China?

The US is the buyer.

So. China imports food, and exports cheap consumer goods.

I can do without a new iPhone for about, well, forever.

How long can China go without food?

I call that, China admitting it’s 100% their fault...and it wasn’t an accident.
