Y'all need to shut the frick about IB Freeman about being a resistance clown and Never Trumper.

He has more intelligence and knowledge about policy in his hand than you have in your entire brain.

However, I completely disagree with him because he does not care about confronting China on theft of trade secrets and corporate espionage that is costing us 100 billion a year.

Good.

Chinese shouldn’t be allowed to own property in the US.

Did you see China was going to have to start back buying US soybeans?

Remember they are only going to start buying soybeans when other sources are out. Our soybean growers are the last in line to sell them as there is still a tariff on US grown soybeans. Chinese soybean users are going to buy US beans if cheaper South American beans are available.

How is this any kind of win?

(I don't think the Chinese will recognize the foolishness of such a tariff but Trump has not as of yet so we shall see.)

That is the exact same stupid thing people said about the Japanese in the eighties.

Explain exactly why you oppose Chinese investment in the US??

Why are free traders ok with rampant corporate espionage and theft of american trade secrets from the Chinese?

It's a serious national security threat and the intel chiefs from the Trump admin has been saying as such.



I get that

What I don't get is why you think that placing a tariff solves these problems

Identifying a problem is part 1. Finding a reasonable solution to the problem is the other half of the equation. Tariffs don't stop the theft of intellectual property

You are too stupid to realize that they have no choice but to buy US soybeans.

These tariffs are a theft tax and the US has more leverage with a strong economy and the Chinese economy is not doing so well right now.

I do not but I do know that there are a lot of regulations on capital leaving China and regulators there may very well be clamping down on money going to US investments by Chinese multinationals.

You may have a point about trade war with Europe but not so much with the Chinese.



We don’t have a trade war with the EU. Trump and the EU are shaping a deal to have the lowest or zero tariffs on both sides.

China will eventually come along.
