Costly Trade With China by Robert E. Scott

2008-04-22T19:22:00.001-07:00

"Contrary to the predictions of its supporters, China's entry into the World Trade Organization (WTO) has failed to reduce its trade surplus with the United States or increase overall U.S. employment. The rise in the U.S. trade deficit with China between 1997 and 2006 has displaced production that could have supported 2,166,000 U.S. jobs. Most of these jobs (1.8 million) have been lost since China entered the WTO in 2001. Between 1997 and 2001, growing trade deficits displaced an average of 101,000 jobs per year, or slightly more than the total employment in Manchester, New Hampshire. Since China entered the WTO in 2001, job losses increased to an average of 353,000 per year—more than the total employment in greater Akron, Ohio. Between 2001 and 2006, jobs were displaced in every state and the District of Columbia. Nearly three-quarters of the jobs displaced were in manufacturing industries. Simply put, the promised benefits of trade liberalization with China have been unfulfilled." See the rest of this article :

CHINESE RICE

Hello Americans,

If you believe that there is a shortage of rice, I have swamp land in Florida to sell you. This is another strong armed tactic to install fear in the American People so you will flood the supermarkets and pay 5 times for for your rice. I say....let the Chinese stick the rice up their cheep plastics and poisoned blood pressure medicine. ( photo by John Carey) http://johnibii.wordpress.com/category/poisoned-caugh-syrup/

Boycott as many Chinese products as you can. Do not buy made in China. Even their toothpaste is responsible for the deaths of many people throughout the world.

And how about the expensive cat and dog food which said on the label that it was manufactured in the United States? The dangerous ingredient , a contaminated whey product, was actually from China!

And what about the blood thinners that killed hundreds of people in America?

Folks, we have a big problem here. It's called ignorant consumerism.....Everyone should let their friends and family know that there is a boycott on All Chinese imports! We , and we alone are the only ones who can do something to help America recover from this economic war, not to mention the millions of American jobs you will be saving!
