We're not discussing the economy in this country. Stop derailing the conversation.

We're talking about ways of forcing China to knock off their bull****.

I'm not derailing the conversation. I'm trying to use a real world example to explain my point. You have no actual argument to back up your claims so you name call and avoid answering. Trying to force China to knock off their bull**** could in many cases hurt us badly.

You're derailing the thread by talking about the economy. This thread is NOT about by the ECONOMY.

We're not talking about Walmart either. Stick to the topic or refrain from posting!

The thread is about dealing with China. Dealing with China would harm the economy. Make sense, or should I use smaller words?

Um.

China, in response to a tariff, would just stop buying up our bonds. The US government would have to start printing money to make up the difference. China would just laugh and start selling off all its holdings of US currency.

We'd really be shooting ourselves in the foot.

If the US. placed crippling tariffs on all Chinese goods coming into this country.... just who would China sell all of those bonds to?.... who would buy them?

BTW.. China just sold $34,000,000,000 worth of our debt in the last few days.
