I usually do not get involved in the debates, but Wal Mart angers me. What I meant was that the US government is being abused by China. This "free trade" is not truly trade. The chinese do not have enough money to buy goods from us (we thought that t would be a market of billions of consumers...WRONG), and the Chinese government under-values their currency so they can dump goods. How is this fair trade? We barely export anything to China in comparison. Our trade deficit with them is huge.
