Why don't you explain the trade deficit to me with your unending k owledge

I couldn't care less how many people they we have in over 20 years they aren't buying our stuff they don't follow the same rules as us.

Stop this fantasy

It's quite simple. A trade deficit means that one is buying more goods than one is selling.
Now, can you explain how it is better to not sell anything?

they don't follow the same rules as us.

So, let's take the ball and go home. From everyone with different rules.

To lose 350 billion is better than losing nothing

Oh. I see. You think that trade is a zero sum game.
It isn't.

But that's ok, we can just stop buying stuff from China at all. Problem solved.

Please stop acting as if you know what you are talking about. To repeat Phage's question, which trade terms are you talking about? What are your specific objections?

Kashmir would be my coronation song... followed by Comfortably Numb as an aperitif.

I'll rent the Mellotron 400 for that one, and I don't even
play keys anymore. WooOO YeahEEYEAhH.

Back to the original argument. GMOs are so good, the corporation
foisting them on us has to lobby the government for legal immunity
from injuries as a result of our ingesting them.

I'm glad at least some European countries aren't as flouridated and
otherwise presoaked as the US in chemicals by now to just say Hell No.
Oh yeah and the irradiation from the nightly bemused... with the
Operation Mockingbird parrots.

Pass the projectiles, tank person.. you drive. And I AM Dave.

Since you want to play why don't you tell us how our relationship with China has been benefitting us at all?

Since when is everyone supposed to benefit from anything having to do with trade?
You ain't one of them commies, are you?

a reply to: Phage

So who's benefitting Phage

a reply to: Phage

Why don't you just say that's it's widening the profit margins benefitting the shareholders

a reply to: onequestion
Those who are selling products to China.
Those who sell materials to those who are selling products to China.
Those who have jobs because people are selling products to China.
Those who have jobs because people are selling materials to people who are selling products to China.

Yeah. I know you don't like the idea of profit.

a reply to: Phage

What products are we selling to China and in what quantity

a reply to: Phage

I don't like the idea of selling out millions of people so a few thousand can buy more mansions and bigger yatchs

a reply to: onequestion

Nothing. We are selling nothing to China.

a reply to: Phage

So why don't you want to talk about the products being sold to China

I mean a 350 billion $ deficit is nothing bah who cares.

a reply to: onequestion

So why don't you want to talk about the products being sold to China

Because, like I said previously. You don't have the slightest understanding. For you, it's all about "what's in it for me." For you, it always if someone is doing better than me, it means I'm losing.

For you, it's spouting Trumpeese.

I mean a 350 billion $ deficit is nothing bah who cares.

So, boycott Chinese products. Maybe you'll feel better about it.

Do you really want me to believe that by ending trade with China returning that 350 billion dollars back to US markets wouldn't offset the 250 billion dollar loss were experiencing

You make absolutely no sense were better trading with someone else or no one at all than we are losing that much money it's pretty damn simple what the hell is wrong with you

a reply to: onequestion

Who's going to buy the products we're selling to China?
