Alright, lest I be accused of only complaining, without ever saying how we can fix this huge mess:

A proposal for dealing with China, and world trade.

(I know there are those of you who are so strongly on the “free trade” side of things, this won’t be accepted in your view of the world. For those of you, I only ask you to think about things)

America as a country needs to look out for trade. For an entire generation, we have been selling off America’s trade assets. Many of those, went to China.

Unfortunately, now China is growing. China now exports more than America, and is rapidly advancing technologically. Their military is also rapidly improving. All the trade balance does, is weaken America (and further grow China’s significant military power)

America in my opinion, needs to stop this. We need to grow, and we need to compete. As a nation, against other nations like China.

My idea is a universal, global, import tariff.

On everything imported.

Everything. One single tariff. No exceptions. No goods singled out. Nothing excluded.

Whatever we as a nation decide we need as an import tariff, we need to charge everything being imported to America.

Oil. Food. Manufactured goods. Everything is charged one import tariff, if it wasn’t originally from America.

This will stop the current situation, of America constantly losing jobs.

What that percentage is, is a completely different discussion, and I won’t even raise that issue now.

But America we are hurting. America is hurting.

We need jobs.

You always fail to consider that China has thrown off the old isolationist policies and released the people to work and become like much of the world. The attempt to hold back the aspirations of the great masses of Chinese people is a futile effort.

China is much much larger than us and it is unreasonable to think the Chinese economy can not grow to exceed all others.

We are able to do business on a two way basis with China. There are uncountable American jobs steming from American exports.

Trade, not isolation, makes the world go round

It is not Ol' Mao's world any more

It is the government that sent jobs to wherever…The EPA and government regulating everything…How long does it take to build a plant in California???

I built a few chip plants in Colorado Springs,…the EPA chased them out .. lot of chemicals in the chip business…Intel founder was from Europe somewhere and vowed he would never built a chip plant over seas…he gave up and moved to ASIA.

There was a little girl on Megyn Kelly. the other night eleven years old and had built up quit a cupcake business from home…til the health department heard about it..

No, no, no.

I can understand why you would want to dodge the question...but I'm calling you on it.

What are you doing to create those jobs? Show us how it's done.

I'll wait...
