That's the thing, we used to make these, all of these products, but because of greed and NAFTA, business was able to flee heavy handed leftist policy and taxes, so they did.
If anyone had noticed over the decades, most American corporations only hang a coat in the US, they no longer show loyalty to American ideals, they have lost their soul, they have also mostly been taken over by leftists via Soros money.

Also, what percent of the 'US' corporations are owned by foreign shareholders?
The wrap themselves in the flag when it suits them and wipe their butts with it when it suits.

They move US jobs to MX then claim to be American corporations.

:biggrin:
Exactly! And I suspect much of that will change once they're accountable to the US and not foreign interests.

QuoteA short while ago, I wrote about possible benefits from President Trump's newly signed Tariff/Immigration Enforcement deal with Mexico. I posited that since our trade relationship with Mexico (and Canada) has improved relative to the one with China, U.S. trade companies would look to source their products in countries other than China. I speculated that Mexico, Canada and/or the Pacific Rim would benefit from this. Now comes some confirmation from the street.

QuoteSo I gave him a jingle. In a lengthly interview covering a number of international trade topics, "Jim," pretty much said, "I'm done with China." Jim's company designs and markets home consumer goods. He pointed out the huge risk China is taking by failing to take President Trump seriously in this tariff fight. In market segments like Jim's, which require molds, jigs and/or specialized tooling, a move away from a current supplier, is only taken in expectation of a huge increase in revenue-profit and/or to obtain relief from restrictive or punitive regulation or costs. 25 percent tariffs put China at far more risk than the United States.

QuoteSmack in the middle of a trade war with the U.S., China is facing a food shortage that's raising prices for consumers. If officials can't keep inflation in check, President Donald Trump's Twitter tantrums will be the least of their worries.

African swine fever is decimating China's pig population. The country's stock fell 21%, or by nearly 73 million pigs, from March 2018 through April 2019, according to official statistics. Unofficially, however, industry experts whisper about slides of more than 40% to 50%. That would be comparable to wiping out all the pigs in the U.S. and Europe combined. For a country that derives most of its protein consumption from pork, this is a problem.

I know. Learn Code. Oh wait, I meant, let them eat cake. Oh wait....I have an idea, they act like a civilized trading nation, sign the trade agreement and this won't be a real big issue, but if they wait till their entire stock dies off, there's nothing anyone can do to bail them out.
The Chinese arrogance of one man is killing an entire country, well, communism is, but that's an easy fix as well. If this arrogance continues, we may be on the side watching a civil war take place in China.

Well, how about that?

Hong Kong protesters claim turnout of 2 million

Two million people reportedly took the streets in Hong Kong on Sunday to protest legislation that would allow residents of the island to be extradited to mainland China for trial.

Hong Kong Chief Executive Carrie Lam apologized in a public statement for mishandling the issue, but declined to say she would step down or scrap the legislation, Reuters reported. The extradition bill was postponed indefinitely Saturday in response to earlier protests.

A former British protectorate, Hong Kong is part of China but retains considerable economic and political independence under a policy dubbed, "One country, two systems." Residents of the island have long been wary of any effort to place it under more direct control by Beijing. The extradition legislation became a flash point because of concerns over Beijing's record on human rights and criminal justice. Sunday's protesters demanded that the Beijing-endorsed extradition bill be completely withdrawn.

Yep, China is far too arrogant to bend on trade, they'd just as soon 10 million of their own people starve rather than concede to fair trade.
I think that's just what they're going to get as their country suffers as business flees the sinking Chinese Junk.
