Better to trust them than a country that will not go out of there way to stop kids being used as target practice or a country that tries to make other countries stop child brides yet won't do the same on their own soil.

Clyde you just keep on proving to us just how low your ethics and morals truly are (about as good as Trump's), keep up your good clueless work as we enjoy to laugh at your limits of comprehension.

Cheers.

:-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D

Brown nosing?

How we deal with a very powerful and fundamentally lawless country and dictatorship regarding Trade Agreements.

China is a sovereign nation and they do have laws, most of us in the west don't like many of them but that does not make them lawless. Your inability or unwillingness to use deductive logic is appalling.

That is not possible for anyone that lacks comprehension.

I just wonder how there is a hermetic seal going in but huge volumes of hot odorous gas escapes?

Sovereign Soviet Russia, Mao China, NAZI Germany were lawless.

All had laws. All had enforcement of those laws. So you are saying the USA is lawless because it has laws and enforces those laws. Got it!

Or are you saying that you believe in God and God's laws? Perhaps even more specifically Judaeo-Christian God's laws?

Is worse than appalling and is a confirmation of all that I post.

Is it?

Which is worse?

A: 19th century Chinese capitalism
or
B: 21st century Western Capitalism

Do you have the courage to explain their differences on the world's workers?

"Workers of the World Unite" was a slogan for the communists for over 50 years.

Hmm, whatever happened to the USSR?

As for Gary, he has not advocated for a pre-emptive strike on NK.

Hmm, didn't the communists want to control the world?

It seems that someone has a deeply held belief in communism :-)

Unfortunately, Religious fanatics and their cousins in stupidity, the Ideological fanatics. Do not have the ability to understand this.

Really? I that how you see most posters?

If so, it begs an important question:
WHY are you here "debating" with them as you well know "fanatics" rarely have their minds open.

"Workers of the World Unite" was a slogan for the communists for over 50 years.

Oddly enough it's Trump that now "fight" for American workers and their rights.
”Make America great again”.
Ops. He have now changed that to ”Keep America great!”
So I guess the US President is content with the situation as it is.

One must never be silent and must confront them.

Not only in these forums but wherever they exist.

Now that is absolutely true. However, on these boards, you have never provided any evidence that suggests that many are as you label them. All you do is "cherry pick" their words & re-arrange in your head until they make sense to you & only you!

Yawn.

Burp :-)

sigh

In 1936 the Nazi's were in power. In 1936 there was no extermination. Repugnant, yes, but lawful.

BTW, Clyde being the first to mention Nazi's has lost the argument as per the rules of Internet debate and also been demonstratively proven false.

The mind is a weird and mysterious place

http://money.cnn.com/2018/04/06/investing/stock-market-dow-jones-trade-war-china/index.html

Stocks tumbled Friday as trade tensions between the United States and China heated up.

The Dow closed down 572 points, a drop of 2.3%, after President Trump threatened to escalate a confrontation with China over trade. It fell as much as 767 points earlier in the day. The S&P 500 and the Nasdaq each declined more than 2%.

Friday's losses wiped out gains for the week, and the Dow sank back into correction territory — 10% below its all-time closing high in January.
...
Anxiety returned to Wall Street after three days of gains. The VIX, (VIX) a measure of market volatility, spiked 12%. CNNMoney's Fear and Greed index sank further into "extreme fear" territory.
...
Selling accelerated later in the day after Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin told CNBC, "There is the potential of a trade war."
...
Stocks were mostly unaffected by the March jobs report, which showed that the US economy added 103,000 positions, down from a much bigger gain in February and well below what analysts were expecting.

@thread, sorry someone else refuses to be on topic and falsely places vile words in others mouths.
Sorry he was elected and formed a coalition government.
What happened after, sounds exactly like Rump and his executive orders
Wiki wrote:

Federal elections were held in Germany on 5 March 1933...the Nazis only tallied 43.9 percent of the vote, well short of a majority. They needed the votes of their coalition partner, the German National People's Party (DNVP), for a bare working majority in the Reichstag.

This would be the last contested election held in Germany before World War II. Two weeks after the election, Hitler was able to pass an Enabling Act on 23 March with the support of all non-socialist parties, which effectively gave Hitler dictatorial powers. Within months, the Nazis banned all other parties, dissolved the Reichstag and replaced it with a rubberstamp legislature comprising only Nazis and pro-Nazi "guests."

So you are saying the USA / Rump is lawless. Got it!

The rest of you should be thankful for that 60 vote cloture requirement in the Senate.

OB: Dow Jones seems to understand trade wars are always lose/lose. By next month's Red Book, inflation will be back and the jobs report will be even worse. Its the economy stupid will be front and center again. Rump will have crushed the biggest expansion in the USA since the Post WWII expansion.

some people insist they know better and everyone must do as they are told

As for yawns, sighs, ZZZZ, burps, etc, the "Author" of this thread don't mind.
It makes the discussions more alive so to speak.
Very much like the open debates in the Swedish Riksdag:)
