[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's ironic for China to call for mutual trust and respect when they are guilty of intellectual property thefts, forced technology transfers, and anti-competitive behaviors that block foreign goods/services from being competitive in the Chinese market. Tell me, can you hail an Uber in China?

Mutual trust and respect my @ss. What they want is for the US to go back being complacent like we were under Obama, to stay quiet while being bent over a barrel by China. [/quote]

The US designed the modern economic system that benefits us after the WW2. We are 5% of world population but we enjoy a disproportionate 25% of world wealth. China and India with 1/3 world population were the largest economies in the world until early 19th century. Why do you think their economies collapsed? They simply couldn't compete against free slave labor and stolen Native American resources extorted for the cost of a few bullets.

Today China and India are just reclaiming their historical position as the top economies of the world. Firs t rule of Capitalism: Those with large internal market of their own will control the world economy. That is what is happening and this time no temporary distortion such as slave labor and stolen resources from a new found land.

America (and the west) are crying fowl only because China is beating them at the game they created for their own benefit. The power has shifted to Asia and the world has come a full circle. We can no longer dictate to China(or to India or Russia) and we need to compete and not complain. We need access to the Asian market because China is largest market for GM, Boeing,  etc. India is largest market for the likes of google, FB, P&G etc. Millions of jobs will be lost in America if we lose access to their markets. That is the reality no American wants to talk about.

The solution is to create a large internal market for American goods by creating TPP like exclusive zone. But thats what the conman killed. He is just a loser who is creating a public REALITY SHOW OF him acting as if he is doing good for America. But the truth is he hasn't done a single thing he promised except for tax cuts for the rich.

NAFTA is still the law. Dreamers are still here. There is no wall. The trade deficits with china is at historic high. Coal/Steel jobs aren't back. North korea is still flying missiles. BUT THE RICH GOT THEIR TAX CUTS. :lol:  :roll: Trumpsters are conned.[/quote]
