What is your opinion of continued trade with China?

Favorite Answer

I think that trade  with PRC  should be  as limited  as it is possible  to  achieve. All the other  countries that have good  trading  relations  with the  west  and  use their  cheaper labour  costs  to   achieve a good  trading  relationship  should be  supported  and  promoted.
The American  companies that  continue  to  get their production   from  PRC  should be publicly  named and shamed!!!!!
The problem that these  PRC  supporting  companies  just  dont  seem to understand is that the general public  due  to underemployment  and unemployment  will not have the  funds  available  to  buy  their  products?  So  they  can produce them  cheaply  using  PRC  SLAVE  labour  but  will eventually  have no  market  available  to  sell them into??...Show more

There is a huge amount of trade both ways between the US and China.

While there are certainly issues with China - political issues such as human rights, Hong Kong, Taiwan, etc. as well as economic/trade issues such as intellectual property rights, I think that we should certainly not cut off trade with China. 

I think that negotiation and working with China would be more productive than cutting off trade. ...Show more

China, Vietnam, Bangladesh, M'yanmar, Indonesia, Thailand all have CHEAP labor and will continue to manufacture for US, Japanese, German, etc companies. (IT INCREASES THEIR PROFIT!!!) Made In USA labor is about TEN TIMES those countries' labor.
So stop CHINA!! Sounds good to brainless, non-thinking American voters. A good knee-jerk reaction which won't work....Show more
