Good article.
It looks like Trump's economic team are aware of this and are willing to expanding trade tariffs if they don't comply. Example the US started to impose tariffs on 30 billion dollars of China's good and was expanded to 200 billion because as Trump explained were not willing to change their behavior. It remains to be seen who will throw in the towel first. My bets are on the US to win this trade war because China has a lot more to lose.
The EU will also comply. They are having their own problems with UK leaving next year and have several European countries barely surviving economically. I remember reading an article when the European union was forming that the purpose of their union was to form one big economic power big enough to rival the US. The author was sounding the alarm bells for the US to be wary of this union. The EU just this week signed a free trade deal with Japan, creating an open trade zone covering nearly a 3rd of the world's GDP. We lost out on the TPP. The world is moving forward without us, striking deals. The total $250 billion of China exports facing U.S. tariffs represents only 1.3 percent of the country’s GDP, and the damage done by those duties might be only around 0.5 percent of output. That’s not pocket change, but it’s almost certainly insufficient to compel Beijing to grovel. If you are China, playing the long game with 2025 and 2050 strategies for world dominance, why not sucker Trump into a massive trade war now? It would hurt both nations badly, but a state-run government can do more to artificially prop up its economy than a capitalistic one. Our tarriffs are already hitting our agricultural sector hard. The price of household goods are rising, hurting everyone soon.

All God's children are not beautiful. Most of God's children are, in fact, barely presentable.
I never met anyone who didn't have a very smart child. What happens to these children, you wonder, when they reach adulthood?

https://www.breitbart.com/big-gover...trump-vladimir-putin-meeting-washington/Nancy Pelosi Slams Trump for Inviting Vladimir Putin to Washington
But yet In 2007, shortly after becoming Speaker of the House, Pelosi traveled to Syria to meet with dictator Bashar al-Assad. You see her here shaking hands with Bashar al-Assad and laughing. Hypocrite......

there's no harm in ensuring Americans (and Americans only) express their Constitutional right of voting by providing a government issued ID. Yes, there is. A "right" means just that. It is inalienable. What if someone doesn't have their ID? They lose their right? Because they don't have a card with their picture and name on it? Who checks the IDs? What if they have a political agenda of their own, and decide to reject IDs even though there's nothing wrong with them, because they're in a district where most people are registered to the opposition party of theirs? You don't need a card to exercise a right. A right is a right, period. You really need to take a government refresher course, or maybe actually read the constitution for once, other than just the 2nd amendment, and you probably don't even know or understand the text to that.
"...the successful annihilation of organized crime's subculture in America would rock the 'legitimate' world's foundation, which would ultimately force fundamental social changes and redistributions of wealth and power in this country. Meyer Lansky's dream was to bond the two worlds together so that one could not survive without the other." - Dan E. Moldea
