BigPappa asked:
Aren’t we are employing people in sweat shops?
Have you used Chinese today?
Sorry about the grammar problem.
Yes, I have used Chinese today. Can’t really help it…
Leogirl? Have you used Chinese today?
Yes you are. Any time you purchase anything that says “made in china” you are supporting their lack of human rights laws and helping them build their military and economy.

Trade with China should be contingent on their following labor, human rights, and environmental laws.

Should China do business with a country(USA) that does 1 plus million ABORTIONS a year??

:You need to differentiate between:
the law of the land,
basic human rights and
business.
If a person is opposed to how China is treating it’s citizens, they can boycott Chinese merchandise.
IMO We have already gotten ourselves into enough trouble by attempting to be “the policeman of the world.”

have you noticed that it’s mainly American companies that are building things in china? they close down here, lay off Americans, then build factories in china, and our piece of sit government gives them tax breaks. it’s not china’s fault that we have such a large trade imbalance-it’s American business.

yes we should if we don’t accept them as trade partners they will become even more of a trade compettitor in the world market than they already are and due to their lower standards they are able to produce more and we would not be able to compete.

We should not trade with any foreign country at all! The US should just nuke all alien countries and kill all non-Americans! This is the only way for the human race to surive the next 100 years.
