It's should be up to the individual American consumer if they want to boycott Chinese products. That shouldn't be a function of our federal government. Why do we need Big Government telling us what products we can't buy or taxing certain import products? We shouldn't want that.
Adding to that, there is a down side to a country like China when it devalues its currency. Inflation goes up, wages go down, the worker's standard of living decreases, workers become dissatisfied and finally the products they produce become inferior. The free market then stops buying those inferior products.
Investment capital also leaves a country that devalues its currency.
The point is a country that devalues its currency will eventually fail. The Big Government Chinese don't understand this. They are communists after all. But we are not communists. We, who believe in liberty and free markets should understand all of this. We should want simply for the cost of doing business in this country to go down and for Big Government to get out of our way. That is what will correct our problems
Someof yoyr points are defective. People today DO buy inferior products because they are cheaper. Look at the success of Walmart. Anything and everything Chinese is inferior but it is ALL cheaper, so our trade imbalance is ENORMOUS, and our goods do not have free access to the markets in China. That is what Trump is fighting! AND HE is CORRECT! We are being BLED DRY. Talk about a BLEED OUT, America is the chump!
Yada yada yada ... 94 million unemployed Americans later... 94 million Americans need jobs! You have bought the cheap-labor-express bs... hook, line and sinker, that it is patriotic to sell out our country and send our jobs to foreign nations. One sided trade deals are not free market, they are stupid suicidal market.
Pro-American trade or all the foreign made crap is shut outa America.
