That's the first step towards improving it.

6. I have a feeling some people in Beijing are not going to like this.

On the other hand, I'll believe it when I see it. And I'm not talking about something which glosses over petty trade issues. I want somthing with some teeth.

5. Does this mean they can't ship more rotten dry wall into the United States for free?

8. Are we requiring that they sell their sh*t to us even cheaper?

:shrug:

9. I think that's the plan... Sell us Rotten Dry Wall and Poison Pet Food....

.. as long as it's "cheap".. we are OK with it.

And not to mention the millions of American jobs that went to China.

Not only do we have to suffer Poison Pet Food.. we are supposed to LOVE the loss of American Jobs.

Something is WRONG.. VERY VERY VERY VERY WRONG.
