China has just won the Trade War

Let me know when it equals the $6,000/yr increase that ******* Obama added to my health care coverage costs. I will never forgive the left for doing that to me.

Obamacare meant for all to sure cost of health care.
Before, healthy ones didn't pay into the system.
Until Trump has an alternative, Obamacare is best we have besides socialized health care.

China shrugs off threat of US tariffs to economy, says it has tools to protect jobs​

China’s leaders are downplaying the potential impact from U.S. President Donald Trump’s trade war, saying they have the capacity to protect jobs and limit damage from higher tariffs on Chinese exports.

The briefing Monday by several senior officials of different government ministries appeared aimed at shoring up confidence with promises of support for companies and the unemployed, easier lending conditions and other policies to counter the impact of combined tariffs of up to 145% on U.S. imports from China.

It followed a meeting of China’s powerful Politburo last week that analysts said had focused on ways to counter keep growth on track despite slowing exports.

never mind. I think china is having some internal problems. BUT The CHICOM Leadership will deal with Orange Man first.

WE have bigger problems related to employment when AI gets up and running full time. Many jobs especially White Collar are going the way of the DO DO Bird.

Dirty Jobs will still be around , but migration will fill those jobs. I mean we did let mass migration occur so there will be plenty of people to do that work.

For Younger Appraisers, what will you do when there will be less need for you?

Why would anybody believe anything the ChiComs have to say? What else do you expect them to say?

The irony is that how many take what China says as "gospel".

What’s stopping the Trump administration from providing the names of China’s trade representatives they claim to be talking to? Their names aren’t state secrets.

As my daddy used to say, "Nothing brings me to tears of joy more than seeing a good coon dog laying in a bed of blooming flowers." Mom showed not so much joy at such a sight.

Never could figure out why folks hunted trash pandas. Cousins did - had the dogs and all. Always kind of pictured them as pretty intelligent little guys - prolly just the opposing thumbs thing.

Why? So China can deny it. SMH
