Gary Locke: the man to unlock US-China trade?

[ASURAN24]

man, there aren't any Chinese companies in US... Fortune 500 are 80+% US-based

[ymhktravel]

Already USA businesses have shipped or outsourced so much of the high tech manufacturing (think Apple etc.) to factories in China and other places usu owned by Taiwanese (eg. Foxconn) that it has lost that leverage to bargain, unlike Germany that keeps much of their high tech within the country and which China has high demand for. To benefit from the liberalisation of china trade, USA has to move up the value chain to get better bargaining. What has gone out will not come back - a costly lesson

[ymhktravel]

Just because Locke is of chinese descent does not automatically confer favours on him by the chinese regime. So what if he's popular with the common people? Ultimately, the ones who liberalise trades are the chinese govt and this would depend on the state of bilateral ties between the USA and chinese govts, not the businessmen. The businessmen just take the cue from the govt. Anyway opening up china for more US trade means it benefits the businesses (low cost of china),not the US citizens.

Good work, its not bad enough, that so many of the products we use here are already made in China, but the US wants even more companies to move to China... how many Chinese businesses are moving to the US? = NONE.

@hursh4

China wants to set up a telco company in the USA. the USA responded by looking into possible intel breaches and making this look like China wants to spy on the USA.

why dun u do some research instead of flaunting your ignorance like the ignoramus u r?

blame the US companies that earn obscene amounts of money from the slave labour in China but dun want to put a cent into the US econ.

[hursh4]

@Ristar85 Why don't you use your brains? China doesn't let U.S. businesses into their country like that... if anything, they keep them in there until they learn how to run a similar business, then they kick the US company out... sure China wants to expand in the US, but they won't let the US expand in China... its one sided always with the chinks. I have friends who own factories in China, the only reason they allow them is cause they create jobs for the Chinese, and make money for them.

@hursh4

retarded racist ignoramus, how long does it take to learn how to create a damn bull dozer in Catapillar's case? is Caterpillar still operating in China?

what companies did China kick out?

retarded and ignorant racist scum, my point in the post addressing your stupidity and ignorance is, China DOES set up shop and provide jobs to Americans.

the only reason u r so retarded is u r born that way.

your last sentence contradicts your conspiracy theory. u should take your own advice.

[hursh4]

@Ristar85 , google, yahoo, facebook... thats just the list dumbass... they got to know how their businesses operated, and made their own versions of it... ps.. also in china, they don't allow youtube, cause they copied it and made their own version of it...

so you are seriously dumb.

[Ristar85]

@hursh4

LOL! and here we have, another retard that thinks he knows all.

Google was blocked because it got political. when u can concentrate for more than half a minute, try to read some news. oh, and lets not forget abt the NSA ties.

the founder of Baidu created the search tech in 1996.

Yahoo isnt blocked.

fact is, CN allows all biz to invest and do their biz in CN. but, just do the biz and stfu.

i can see why CN would want to block fb. after all, it spies for the US gov and US corporations.

[hursh4]

@Ristar85 HAHAH you fucking dummy, of course they say everything is blocked because of political... thats how they block american companies stupid rofl... you are so stupid

[Ristar85]

@hursh4

LOL, again, the retard shows how retarded he is.

if China were blocking US companies, u idiots wont be bitching about not having jobs in the first place.

[hursh4]

@Ristar85 just admit you are wrong... china blocks companies by saying they go against their political beliefs, then they copy the same companies basic structures... when the only retort you have left is random insults... it shows that you don't want to admit that you were wrong.... but I seriously doubt if you have any character at all.

[Ristar85]

@hursh4

learn this little concept: it is not insult if it's the truth.

did China block Walmart? is Walmart's biz model that complicated?

did China have search tech before booting Google?

did China have internet business before booting Google?

is Caterpillar's tech that advanced? how long does it take to copy? is Caterpillar's biz model that complicated?

u r wrong, retard. no, it's not an insult, but the truth.

if China were blocking investment, slaves in the USA wont be bitching abt jobs.

[hursh4]

Way to go... open up China for American businesses, and they will move more factories over there, let alone take our technology and keep it there.
