So you want this trade stopped ? Why haven't the American business leaders, the supreme capitalists of the world - simply cut them off and driven them into bankruptcy - defeating communism forever ?

Because we live in a materialistic society where money-power is everything, where all things become subservient to money making, even the church, the arts, the sciences. This is not a new phenomena, we've had this problem for awhile now, slowly growing, and even foreseen. This is why the Founders said that our form of government was for a moral and religious people. Once those supports are gone, once materialism became dominant and made itself the center of the void, society then kills itself. It has no bearings. No vision. It lacks political depth, reducing everything to the checkbook, thinking that wars are won with money-- when, really, wars are won with soldiers, who can then get at plenty of money. Our founders were strong, and the aristocracy of old was strong, because they still had the warrior traditions of Christendom. Now only Russia has them, but they are not Christian traditions, but the traditions of communism, and that means mass murder on a scale never seen before.

No, you can make MORE money if two RICH nations trade with each other...

than if a BACKWARD SLAVE nation trades with a RICH nation.

If more MONEY was what was motiving globalist capitalists, they would want capitalism EVERYWHERE.
