Face facts yourself. India has teh world's second highest tariffs on American goods per teh WTO China imposes a 50% tariff on normal goods with another 14% VAT on top of that. this in a nation where the average annual income in the countryside is $1,000/yr in Beijing it is admittedly $2,00/yr. Gee that allows a whole lot of disposable income to buy American produced goods and services. Right.
Oh yes and we have nopt gone into the currency controls and the non-tariff restriction and the technology ownership issues either. The American people are being sacrificed on an altar of lies that we have anything resembling Free Trade.
Now tell me how much liberty the average Chinese enjoys these days. Why just a few years back that had teh bifg demonstrations in Tianamen Square where they errected a stute of liberty and those ended peacefully right. Wrong, [insulting name omitted due to Free Republic rules]. Maybe, just maybe, if you actually looked at the issue you wuld not be spouting the previous drivel. It is an insult to your reader's intellect. It is one way. china is importing capital equipment and exporting consumer garbage with rules that give them ownership of the technology in the future.
