That's your great concern?

What economy? No although it's important but we need to keep the lead if we become green Russia and China would become 1 and 2

I'm not trying to troll here. I honestly think this. Trump is actually making it so that America is not number one.. and our company economy will eventually suffer

..scratch company...

Our enemies aren't going to sacrifice their manufacturing capabilities

the democrats want us to destroy our capabilities so that the chinese can take over the world

I dont know about that @pennypal

Globalization, ai, automation and the internet have changed everything about commerce

We don't live in the same world we did 25 years ago

Manufacturing jobs were primarily lost because of automation

Yes we live in a world where china is trying to take over

no they weren't

idiot

There's plenty of statistics on that

it was from outsourcing

Remember when Trump save that factory during his campaign?

The chinese regime should be burned to the ground

it's the only way to protect our future

The guy who owned the factory got a couple million and tax breaks... To keep it going.

he was interviewed and they asked him what he was going to do with the money... He said automation.
It's anecdotal..but ironic

There can be no green initiatives as long as china still stands

period

The Chinese already ow half of America. Trump just gave them more ownership by putting us more in debt

Own

This is a war

We are never going to pay back chinor

China could ask for it any day and if we don't pay it that our credit rating goes down

That's not how it works

Use credit karma

That is how it works

China isn't ever getting their money back

it's not even that much money either

almost all of our debt we owe to ourselves

Do you know what happened in Greece?

@pennypal
They owe us actually for helping them a ton

GG @Svea Rike, you just advanced to level 4!

Greece-oof

china never lent us money, they only purchased some of our own debt

a small amount mind you

only about 2 trillion or so

We are our own primary creditor

because of the jacked up federal reserve system
