Yeah, the marines will sleep with anything that moves. Or doesn't move. 4 limbs and alive, and they are flexible on both.

Proof ?

They don't have the time or energy to explain it to us.... I keep asking

You wouldn't listen even if their was a 25 point essay with sources.

It is not our job to teach you.
You have proclaimed your ignorance.

I don't have the time or crayons to explain it to you if you don't already see the writing on the wall.

That's because you don't have anything to share or you don't want me to refute anything you share. Which one is it?

You fight just for the sake of fighting.

Putting it simply, everything you typed about the WTO is a crock of feces... they have been implicit in the ongoing for the last 30 to 40 years of trade wars in an attempt to wear the US down.

Can anybody defend or explain this claim ?
BTW the USA is a founding member of the WTO and GATT which proceeded it ? Every time an argument is made against the Trump tarrifs those who support them answer with obfuscation, insults or opinions in place of facts.
I’ve said it so many times, the USA 25% of global GDP , 32% of global investable wealth & just over 4% of global population, but you’re getting screwed?

China has been raping most countries since they joined. Look it up. That's the only way you will listen.

China is in dispute over IP. You’re making the claim so it’s up to you to prove it.

Not worth my time. I am just trying to help you be less ignorant

 

[sunshine_eggo]

If I did that, I would have very few posts left.

SAME!

It’s because you don’t have anything to back up your argument. The problem is that you believe everything that Trump says, without question.US corporations are the biggest investors in China & used their cheap labour to make bank, completely ignoring human rights. That’s the uncomfortable truth.

See here, I know this is true, but you didn't bring sources.

For example, the basic cost of manufacturing (BOM) of a 32G iPhone 7 is less than $225, but the sale price is $649. There is one line in all iPhone documentation, stating “Designed by Apple in California, Assembled in China”, meaning that the iPhone has separate intellectual property and manufacturing costs. Of these, the manufacturing cost is listed as a US trade deficit but the intellectual property is not listed in the US services surplus, as the majority of Apple’s intellectual property revenues do not return to the US but to Ireland. Many US companies that have vast intellectual property follow this practice.

Are you for real? That doesn't need sources. There is absolutely no debating that the China monster was created by the US corporations outsourcing pretty much everything they could to them. If they spoke better English, they probably would have got the call centers too, but Indians grabbed that one with their overly polite sounding variant of English.

Actually Hong Kong & the British Virgin Islands are the biggest by country. The USA is third. But the investment is substantial.

Yep but like the WSJ, FT The Council On foreign relations etc. their output is aimed at at the oligarchs they serve so it’s usually supporting their interests.

What source would you accept as credible on the matter?

Link with really good information
I don't know why this is so "spot on" on a craft site.
But this seems other countries (not just the US) have the same reasons and why.
