"...must begin to take concrete steps..."

I wonder if any of these "steps" have actual deadlines associated with them.............

The Chinese must crap in their pants laughing at these clowns.

China shows "increasing signs of mercantilism," seeking to direct markets rather than open them, and such actions must cease before its policies undercut U.S. domestic support for open markets.

Modern mercantilism regarding China was first brought up and discussed here on FR quite a while back...

Just a little FYI...

A redacted Cox report under the Clintonista administration covered lots of butts. Ron Brown introduced the encryption devices to the Chinese, who passed to other foreign markets that allowed Bin Laden to communicate with his criminal cohorts without any intelligence detection. I must apologize but what do these people in Washington get paid to do. Ignore the obvious? The Chinese live and play by their own rules. We can not penetrate their upper echelon but they have access to our top secret labs. They have thousands of private corporations in this country to access our intelligence and research. Yet, we are impotent in reciprocation. Can anyone convince me that private enterprise exist in that country. Please don't bore me with good intentions. I live in a little country town just outside of New Orleans and this country can't quite put it all into perspective. Washington, WE HAVE A PROBLEM!!!
