China 'shocked' by US actions in trade dispute

This is easy. All China has to do is revise its tariff and regulation policies on US goods sold in China and the whole problem goes away.

That is what I have been thinking

As the trade deficit goes down, and as the dollar strengthens, the prices of imported gook made stuff will remain about the same.

China isn't "shocked" by our trade tariffs.
They are shocked that we put up with their trade
behavior for so long! And now they are pretending to be angry
hurt and offended by our actions to try trick us
into stopping America's actions to defend itself.

I don't believe China gives a damn if we put 30% tariffs on
their products. They just don't want America preventing
their theft of its intellectual property and
defense and industrial secrets. Now that would throw
monkey wrench in their plans of world domination.

“Same with the globohomos on FR. They are disappointed that the huge and unfair trade imbalance is being rectified.”

The same idiots who decry “Trade wars are bad” and fail to realize we’ve already been in a trade war with China for 20+ years.

Yep.

The only thing worse than a war is refusing to acknowledge that you are in one even as you are being steamrolled.

[deadrock]

The very same people.

Ok by me.
