This is now serious.

China has now become the world's largest exporter. That happened several years ago now.

We are unsurprizingly, the largest importer.

What is worse is China continues to grow, and we continue to shrink.

NOBODY is doing one thing it would appear, to fix that.

We sell rack after rack of Chinese made goods in every single store in America.

Every one. And we just keep sending the production of everything out of America.

Wake up GOP. Turn this around. Be for American jobs.

Yeah that’s the ticket! While we are adding 6,000 new regulations a month and the dems are talking about tax increases on corporations.

So, as a solution to a problem caused by government intrusion, you advocate more government intrusion that will increase the costs to the consumer.

How about corporate tax reductions and the elimination of thousands of regulations?

We live in a global economy. Deal with it. As long as we have high union labor costs china, vietnam and other countries will contnue to make our stuff. I see our labor costs going up not down. I dont think we can compete for manufacturing jobs and a hearty “Hell no” to more import taxes that are just passed on to us.

Bad idea, for at least two reasons:
It will immediately cause retaliatory tariffs on American export goods.
Don't give the gov't any more ways to collect money or any more thumbscrews to torture the economy with.

Much better than import tariffs would be to lower the cost of running a business here. Less taxes, ease regulations.

"Wake up GOP. Turn this around. Be for American jobs. "

The GOP doesn't give a crap about increasing American jobs. They're just interested in bomb, bomb, bombing the world.

There aren’t only imports from China. There are imports on the shelves and clothing hangers from many countries around the world with a few having names I have never heard of before.

Do you want to stop all imports? Where would you get computer motherboards, for example, for the prices that are currently available?

The unions in this country have to be pounded down into the ground. Then and only then can we talk about taxing and/or limiting imports.

That idea was once proposed by a guy named Ross Perot, and you can see what has happened since then as a result.

I cringe at the negativism on this network, doncha?!

What do you think is going to happen with your “idea”, whether it is good or bad? What? Concrete consequences, please!

It’s an inconsequential brain farts network, if you axe me.

Tax welfare, food stamps, free phones, housing assistance, utility assistance,free daycare, long term unemployment benefits, etc! Get Americans working again and 11 million illegals will have to go home.
