who has the best geography

2020-02-17 21:43:27 UTC  

they produce enough food to keep prices relaively high in the domestic market

2020-02-17 21:43:28 UTC  

Would President Xi be just as American as Abraham Lincoln?

2020-02-17 21:43:38 UTC  

I think america has the best geography

2020-02-17 21:43:45 UTC  

Xi ain't even a president

2020-02-17 21:43:47 UTC  

@Ares that isn't even a legitimate question.

2020-02-17 21:43:49 UTC  

He's a chairman

2020-02-17 21:43:53 UTC  

We have the infrastructure for mass food imports and exports. We actually export more agriculture to China than we import from them.

2020-02-17 21:43:54 UTC  

Sea to shining sea helps. @π’€­π’‹Ύπ’Š©π’†³

2020-02-17 21:44:01 UTC  

i know

2020-02-17 21:44:06 UTC  

because china cant grow crops for shit

2020-02-17 21:44:14 UTC  

@Mersenne who's the 'we' in this case?

2020-02-17 21:44:17 UTC  

we dont have enough infrastructure to *import* food tho

2020-02-17 21:44:22 UTC  

we're mostly relying on domestic produce

2020-02-17 21:44:27 UTC  

The United States as the net exporter in this case

2020-02-17 21:44:37 UTC  

we only have so many ports

2020-02-17 21:44:39 UTC  

when america and china hate but fundamentally rely on eachother

2020-02-17 21:44:46 UTC  

well

2020-02-17 21:44:48 UTC  

difference being

2020-02-17 21:44:52 UTC  

america can survive without china

2020-02-17 21:44:56 UTC  

71 seats I disagree

2020-02-17 21:44:57 UTC  

china cant survive without america

2020-02-17 21:44:58 UTC  

:dab:

2020-02-17 21:45:06 UTC  

Man, I don't know how else to spell it out. Mexico sends 100 mil people over however long. Your kids have the option between President Alejandro and President Pedro. Is that just as American as Chuck and Steve?

2020-02-17 21:45:15 UTC  

We might rely but "fundinental"? No lol

2020-02-17 21:45:16 UTC  

The US absolutely can sustain itself without China.

2020-02-17 21:45:17 UTC  

They make all your shit and you make all their food

2020-02-17 21:45:34 UTC  

america has factories, theyre just low production

2020-02-17 21:45:43 UTC  

both can survive without the other but the original statement is still true

2020-02-17 21:45:44 UTC  

and china is also less important for manufacturing than it used to be

2020-02-17 21:45:53 UTC  

we also have factories in taiwan, vietnam, and other assorted places

2020-02-17 21:45:56 UTC  

The US can sustain itself as an independent and self-sufficient populace. Taking advantage of global trade is not tantamount to dependency.

2020-02-17 21:46:02 UTC  

We'd have to retool, but it wouldn't be the first time the US rapidly retooled.

2020-02-17 21:46:08 UTC  

china would just import food from elsewhere if america didn’t exist

2020-02-17 21:46:10 UTC  

@π’€­π’‹Ύπ’Š©π’†³ they don't make all of our stuff. Our consumer market chooses to buy from them bc they're cheap and follow no laws

2020-02-17 21:46:12 UTC  

america is one of the leaing agricultural producers in the world

2020-02-17 21:46:18 UTC  

chinkland cant live without american food

2020-02-17 21:46:22 UTC  

they cant get african food

2020-02-17 21:46:26 UTC  

africa sucks dick at farming

2020-02-17 21:46:31 UTC  

Lol

2020-02-17 21:46:31 UTC  

they cant support themselves
