Any way it's sliced and diced, "free" trade with a unfree people such as China, is a race to the bottom. Just what do we have in this country that we can sell to China....(besides our politicians)?
They don't respect our patent laws, trade market laws, election laws. They gave money to slick Willie out of the kindness of their hearts?.

I can vouch for that first hand, in Singapore there is a large building, I forget now if it was Sim Lim Tower or Square. About 8 stories tall, very fancy, even had a jade dragon about 8 feet long on the first floor. One of the biggest items for sale, if not the largest, was bootleg America software, all from China.

This was in 2000, I understand that the Singapore government has cracked down since then, I'm not sure if it is available elsewhere on the island. Anyhow it was not bootlegged in Singapore, but China.
