IB, you defend China all the time because your shitty company depends on Chinese steel and money is your god. What makes it detestable is you constantly dress it as “defending the american citizen!” in some sort of warped virtue signal.

You and our political and economic elite’s service to mammon has completely hollowed out Middle America by replacing $60k factory jobs with $20k service jobs and making the entire country's supply lines tremendously vulnerable to catastrophe. You claim this is worth it because Americans can save a dime on a case of beer because the aluminum came from an Asian slave pit.

Having our critical supply lines dependent on communist China is an absolute disaster. Anyone that was ever on the fence can see that now with this plague brought upon us by your chink overlords. You say you never defend them, but you shite up this topic to shamelessly defend their disgusting wet markets of all things.

People like you are traitors to America and in a just world you would be the first to hang.

That is BS. The USA in December had the highest average wages ever in real terms and in nominal terms. We also had the most people employed too.

This is so stupid I should not respond but I will just to see if you can even comprehend something so simple.

If we as a society spend less on the case of beer you mention are we not free to spend more on higher value products? A dime a case more on ventilators or super computers or air conditioning or better cars? Is our standard of living not improved? Do you want to take capital out of the company to pay more for simple commodities like aluminum instead of investing in the advancement of society?

Having supply lines that have to move to China because of government regulation and government imposed cost on production and profits in the USA is an absolute disaster that we fail to acknowledge.

I am simply telling you in that thread that the people there prefer to shop in those places. That is a fact and is no defense of China. Do you not believe that?

Screw you.

I am the one advocating for Americans. You are simply bitching and whining looking for someone to blame for your every inconvenience.

Rest assured if you EVER get the courage and the ambition to own your own business nobody here will be for keeping the government out of your business than will I.
