No point, someone else’s copyright. https://www.wsj.com/articles/asia-factories-consumer-goods-labor-prices-7140ab98 when we write these stuff, it is utterly racist, including wsj. wsj summaries that the Vietnamese factory workers have access to a nice cafe and babysitting facilities, the costs will be showing up in goods exported to the west, hence ultra cheap stuff is no longer the norm. well, it is like you serve your master meals and steal foods from the kitchen, so 18th century colonial.
Pushing back is pretty mild from what I recall. They were hostile and openly calling him racist for even suggesting such a thing. The same happened when he offered the national guard to urban areas about 1,000 murders ago... and today they are asking for them.

"The rule is not expected to come into force until next year, an official said." So for this year, you can invest all you want. Just come election next year, we will make the pretense to be tough on China to get all the votes from the Reneck states. This is actually scarier than you think.

national issue or not, i wrote on his twitter opined that the inflation would go up right quick, that was in 2019, before the pandemic, before all the transitory comments.
%% OK, that's the way the headline implies BUT they made so many goofs, it would be hard to make 100% goofs= ALL the timeLOL SO no, its good to limit an evil empire+ crooks , Chicago Crooks,+ chicoms. Good shot also , when they, noted by public record ,blew up that gas pipeline from evil empire. 1887 Yellow River flood killed >50,000. WSJ had an article about many, many millions killed by famine-grasshopper plague \ after the chicoms killed all the sparrows.....................................
china has been “exporting” disinflation since gfc at least. we see cheap and low quality stuff because no one wants to “overpay”. you get what you pay for, material costs are global and transparent.
