The China Syndrome…

The VP of China is visiting the United States this week and VP Biden couldn’t have graveled any more than he did at the White House ceremony for this Chinese visitor. It was enough to make any American puke. I don’t know about you but I am appalled at the position we are in with the Chinese government due to our insatiable desire to borrow 40 cents of every dollar the Federal Government spends. Our position with China is weak and will remain so until we balance our budget.


But the Chinese relationship is bigger than borrowing money. They cheat, lie, devalue their currency to prop up their trade position, hire child labor, steal our intellectual property, are using our money to build up their military, a military that will be a real threat to our children.

China has become a large manufacturing center in the world because our politicians refuse to lower the cost of doing business here in the US. We reward the Chinese government by allowing their unfair trade practices to undermine a truly free and competitive world market. We turn a blind eye to the human abuse and assault on freedom and liberty by China at the expense of our own citizens.

I believe in free and fair trade. I don’t believe we have free or fair trade anymore. Our government has inflicted thousands upon thousands of pages of regulations on our businesses which reduces the ability of people to start businesses. They subsidize companies like Solyndra and GM at the expense of companies that are trying to compete in the free market. And the Federal Government and politicians keep penalizing existing businesses with high tax rates that send them offshore in order to compete successfully in this unfair market.

I am sick of watching China eat our economic lunch while our politicians gravel at the feet of Chinese government officials. We are the best in the world at everything when the field of competition is level. Our politicians continue to undermine the American worker and business while allowing the corruption to continue in both China and our own federal government.

We need to level the field and take back our future by rejecting this administration in order to break the shackles these politicians have burdened us with by kowtowing to the Chinese. It is time for Americans to stand up and show the Chinese and our Federal Government what we can do when we put our minds to it! First action: throw the bums out in November…

Honoring the Chinese Dictator Hu?

Does anyone really believe we should honor anything about the brutal communist dictatorship called China? The Chinese people are brutally subdued into compliance with government laws that deny free speech, free markets, and basic liberty. To treat as an honored dignitary, the leader of the Chinese communist party is a slap in the face to everything we stand for as a people.


The Chinese economy is a house of cards because it is built on deceit and lies. The only thing propping it up are greedy corporations looking for cheap labor to exploit. Corporate officers turn their heads on the atrocities but their heads should truly be bowed in shame. By investing in China without human rights reform is to reward evil. The Chinese government is evil.

Free market economists argue by investing in a country’s economy we lift up the lives in those economies. For some of the lucky few that may be correct, and there is probably an argument that you plant the seeds of freedom, but how long do you allow complete oppression of a people before demanding reform from that government?

It does not surprise me that Obama is the first president to hold a State Dinner for the Chinese. I would speculate that he is envious of the Chinese leader’s ability to avoid the messy process of a representative republic governed by a constitution. How easy it would be if one man or administration could decide what was best for all. How much more we could do if we would all just work together for the good of the collective state. If we could just shut up the critics at will, our problems could be solved. The government is so much more effective at determining what is good for its citizens. That is the left in a nutshell.

Obama is honoring Hu because he envies Hu. The left would much rather live in a world they control than all of this “We the People…” stuff. The food we eat, the cars we drive, the amount of electricity we use, the size of our house, the education we receive, the medical care we have access to, would all be so much better if we had an all empowered government to watch over us. We wouldn’t have to worry about climbing the corporate ladder or providing for our future. All of that would be handed to us and decided by government officials. The paradise we are depriving ourselves is only a constitution away.

There isn’t an American citizen stupid enough to want to trade their US citizenship to become a Chinese citizen. The Chinese are using capitalism to fund a power structure so they can expand their communism when necessary in the future. We are funding their plans to one day dominate the global economy. We are funding the communist government’s destruction of human decency and freedom. We are funding the most polluting country in the world. We are funding child labor and labor camps. We are funding our greatest enemy both physically and philosophically. The Chinese people deserve better from the United States of America. The Chinese people deserve an ally in the fight for freedom not an adversary that is funding their greatest oppressor.

Shame on us and shame on Obama…
