In just the past week we have seen it needlessly impose enormous tariffs on Chinese goods, in a move decried by the International Monetary Fund as a "threat to the global economy", and also needlessly impose further sanctions on Iran and sail an amphibious assault force into Iranian waters.

Its brutal oppression of its own 300 million citizens - including the highest rate of incarceration in the world and frequent police killings of ethnic minorities - are well documented and do not even need further discussion at this stage.

When will the people of the world finally come together and stamp out the American terrorist threat once and for all?

Tho there is something more interesting... According to Trump China and US were close to a deal before Chinese dodged and asked for renegotiation. To me its obvious that the Chinese were preparing for this the whole time and they were buying time, which they got. Now the biggest question that remains unanswered is... On what did the Chinese used this time? I presume we will know in a week or two. Yes there will be a huge reaction to US actions.
And... Is US and its citizens ready to take strong punch?

I think they're trying to build their third aircraft carrier. As a heads up, the US had over 30 in the 1940's.

There's a good joke about the strong punch thing and fraternities in here somewhere, but I just can't take you seriously much anymore, so I can't be bothered. If you don't like it, what can I say? Bite me!?

Is Xi Jinping looking like Kim Jong-un to you?
Just joking, too complicated question for you.

We (the US) does need to reduce trade and start making goods here... this will be painful to Americans, and you’re right in questioning our ability to handle it, and our political will over the long term. I don’t know enough to say that the way Trump is going about it is the best way... if I was a betting man I’d say it wasn’t. I’m hoping it’s a wake up call and we recognize that we can’t outsource everything.

The longer we wait the harder it’ll be to ‘right the ship’.

Why?

I used to be a big fan of Micheal Emerling, and one of the things he used to say a lot was, "I love the fact that we have a trade deficit with Japan. It means we send them these worthless pieces of paper, and they send us useful things like TVs and microwaves!"

To make the gadgets you love at prices you can afford, it takes Third-World wages. There's no way you could have the booming economy you do if you were trying to pay people G7 wages to make things. Your first-world lifestyle is completely dependent on outsourcing.

Sorry Duk, Japan isn't a third world country. No idea who your fan-boy is either.

"When will the people of the world finally come together and stamp out the American terrorist threat once and for all?"

Its happening now, it takes time, you can follow the progress if ya want to.
The nations are dumping the dollar and hoarding gold, thats how it started, now they work on methods of circumventing sanctions and preventing invasions.
