American Politicians Fight Chinese Capitalism - China Experts Warn Timing Couldn't Be Worse
U.S. politicians adopt anti-capitalist stance, risking trade war with China, experts claim, before visit of China President Hu Jintao.
Houston, TX (PRWEB) April 8, 2006 -- "Ignorance and fear continue to run amok among American politicians," according to China business expert Jim Trippon. "First there was the fight with Latin America, one of the few bright spots for U.S. exports, over U.S. immigration rules. Now the U.S. Senate is pushing two bills that could virtually wreck American trade with China." Their timing, acording to Trippon, Editor of the China Stock Digest, "couldn’t be worse."

The U.S. trade deficit has reached an all time high of $726 (B) Billion, $202 (B) Billion of which is with China. However, since 1997, U.S. exports to China have soared by 145%. China Stock Digest Editor-in-Chief Jim Trippon says, “American exports to China have been growing at a rate that is seven times faster than U.S. exports to the rest of the world. This is not a time to start a trade war with the Chinese. This is a time to continue our strong growth and begin to trim our bloated trade deficit.”
While China remains a Communist country, its leaders are embracing a more and more capitalistic approach to business. “It may be news to most American politicians, but fighting against trade with China is fighting against capitalism,” Trippon said. So why have Senators Byron Dorgan (D) and Lindsey Graham (R) proposed a bill meant to embarrass the Chinese by forcing an annual vote on their permanent normal trade relations status?
Worse yet, Senators Graham (R) and Charles Schumer (D) have proposed a bill punishing China with a 27.5% levy on imports. Why would these Senators want to punish the Chinese when U.S. trade with the Chinese is one of our few success stories? According to Trippon, “Perhaps it is because they are more interested in politics than progress.”
Trippon predicts that anti-Chinese political rhetoric will rise to a crescendo as Washington prepares for a visit by Chinese President Hu Jintao on April 20th.
