What a stupid video, China didn't take any jobs, America gave them up to them. It was part of the Reagan puppet era of destroying the Soviet union. Raise China up to help support America in an increasingly costly arms race that crippled the oppositions Economy. Now China plays the same game against America, tease Military expansion and advance to cause the opposition to actually over balance in that direction. Who has many 100's of overseas bases again? and who dredged an island or 2 in the middle of nowhere? lol.
Want to know the real issue America has with China? It's not a capitalist nation. The few that use capital to control America can't do much in China. The Chinese government holds absolute power above capital. Debts, loans, bribes none of it can effect it. Chinese government controls the money, the American side no, it's why Apple can hoard a trillion overseas. Capital controls America, not China.
As to the average American hoping things will get better with only America putting tariffs on China, well they won't. Trade will just move to other nations, and costs for Americans will go up. Now if an alliance of Nations put tariffs on China, it's what we call sanctions, that would work. But sanctions are the first act of war, I doubt China would take that lying down, I also highly doubt many other nations would sanction China. China has not acted even slightly as aggressively as America. America has invaded and committed Genocide to China's surround nations and even been part to atrocious crimes or war inside China. China has been so far the greatest miracle in human history raising more people to prosperity than ever before. It's trade benefits more nations than any other.
The problems of America are self wrought. Inequality will continue to worsen. The causes of which are as old as time, greed of a few. There are a few choices, war, revolution, political change and continued expansion. What the elite need to realize is the first two are inevitable unless some improvements are made. The last two are the best hope. Expansion is truly the sanist solution. This planet can support a lot more people. There is many other planets in this solar system, other solar systems in the galaxy and all the space and things in between.
