>>Perhaps the USA should respond by ramping (down) the massive amount we buy from China<<

This starts in every Americans home. Read the labels. I have had a personal China boycott for years. My appliances are American made, autos, tractor, horse tack...you name it. If I can't buy American, I'll buy goods from Mexico or Vietnam...whatever, but I won't be Chinese.

Americans bought into the globalist lie that Americans want cheaper goods...problem is, cheaper meant cheezy quality.

Besides, American corporations are allowed by China to pollute the crap out of their air and water to pad their bottom line. Little environmental/worker safety regs. like we have here in the states.

Buy American!

“-—boycott for years”-—make that decades at my house. Remember when Walmart used to advertise “American made”? That was up to the early 80’s. About 1985 my wife and I thot we’d take a trip thru the local Walmart to see if they had anything we could use. The first thing I picked up was a pair of boots, looked at the bottoms, and noted “made in China.” We walked on thru and haven’t been back. I still have bumperstickers on my trucks that say “eat your import”. Quality and SERVICE are always the issues so there is very little chicom krap at my place.

Note that it was Hagel making the large statement of support. Curious because he hasn’t taken a firm position on anything so far including advocating clean underwear. Shooting his mouth off really makes it a sure thing fur shure?

I need a new refrigerator. My last two GEs didn’t last 5 years. My Samsung makes noises like an old man after Thanksgiving dinner. Can you recommend a good American brand that will last until I retire in 12 years? I don’t care if it is energy efficient. I just want cold beer and no gurgling.
