I guess the Chinese are idiots for essentially doing the same thing by devaluating their currency to boost imports and protect their industries. They protect their industries and have overtaken the U.S. as a manufacturing powerhouse? Please give me another free-traitor rant that explains otherwise.

A few years back in the big controversy between ranchers and the federal government about grazing on federal land, Oprah went on a big anti-beef campaign.

High corporate taxes and excessive regulation and environmentalism cause American manufacturers to have to pass those costs to the consumer or their business partners. Chinese manufacturers don't have these high costs, therefore consumers and downstream businesses prefer the lower prices of the Chinese driving American manufacturers out of business. Shrieking idiots such as yourself say "we need tariffs!" instead of addressing the root of the problem which is high taxes and excessive regulation. High tariffs would just add more cost to American products driving even more manufacturers out of business. It's you commies, posing as protectionists, as dragnet2 admitted earlier on this thread he is in fact an anticapitalist, that are the traitors.

We call commies posing as environmentalists "watermelons". We need a name for commies and anticapitalists posing as protectionists.

Lol She was sticking up for her homeboy Obama. I'm sure she eats that great Japanese Kobe beef while she campaigns to put our ranchers out of business.

He has already affected Ford’s operations. Ford was ready to move a truck operation to Mexico, but when Trump said what he did, they announced they’re leaving it in the U.S.

No word yet on the proposed $2.5 Billion plant they were planning to build in Mexico.

Trump is THE ONLY candidate adressing the corporate inversion issue.

A GOOD point.

If Trump ISN'T elected very little will change.

Give me that even tempered Cruz who understands the constitution.

Sorry to say.. Cruz may understand the Constitution but he has gotten NOWHERE in the Senate with his tactics over the past 3 years.

He has been thwarted and "kneecapped" at every turn by the GOPe.

Try this on for size. It may actually better than we’ve been led to believe.

California stands a very good chance of going Republican for the first time since Reagan. LINK

No, they are a tool to use when our economic adversaries deliberately manipulate their currency to our detriment.
