what a fitlhy liar, the GM and the VW both have sold the larggest amount of cars in china, and second larggest amount worldwide just less than what they have sold in the US and the Germany respectively, and the foreign cars have been assigned to government purchasing item list. I hate what china's govenment doing like that, but I hate more the white trash who are lying without blinking his eyes

I like the public relations exercise thing. Please your own people and please the world. Of course, doing that without reducing trade surplus and huge foreign reserves.

Those jobless factory workers would really suffer. But that was US' fault and the Chinese, if they were subsidizing exports.
Hopefully, the fact that Chinese do quite a lot of saving will help soften the depression.

In general, I think China will be in better condition than the US.

There's nothing ridiculous about it, the Chinese economy is driven by exports which are subsidized by the government, now is the time for China to dig into their huge savings. It could really help stimulate the global economy, they have 2 trillion in foreign reserves they can't spend at home, they might as well go on a shopping spree in the west and buy anything they want (besides gov't bonds). Plus everything is discounted in the US right now so in the long run it is a good return for China.

haha, this video made me laugh. Why would the Chinese encourage imports? For the sake of making the US better off? No.. the US economy is none of China's concern, China has enough economic problems of its own. Every country is out to do whats best for itself, there is no reason China would give its huge trade surplus that so many countries can only dream of.

i'd like to ammend that point.. every INDIVIDUAL is out to do whats best for itself. there is no reason i would give up my trade surplus either.. not yet, anyway.. not until i have enough. =P

the gov needs to stay out of every trade sector.

Why should the Chinese trust people Americans don't even trust, the US government.

Congress sold us out to corrupt banks and corporations - we all know it.

Prediction, Obama get's his 100 days, it better be focused on taxing the billionaires at the same rate a school teacher is taxed, he needs to provide affordable heath care, create jobs and rebuilding THIS country if not, tax payer's revolt.

You can't own human beings. STOP IT!

Ahh, credit the market of human trade.

Who owns you? MASTERcard? Discover? a mortgage lender that may sell you off to another lender next month? Student loans? Payday lenders? Or do you own yourself?

Being debt free, I can say that I own myself as much as it is possible in this society. Hopefully there are a lot of people that can say the same.
