how is this going to work? How is any small/medium sized business going to afford to compete on pricing with China's domestic market. And this sets aside the tariff/trade wars Trump wants to bring about with China or any currency manipulation resulting from it.
How do they plan on enforcing intellectual property here- or will this just be a temporary agreement to allow piracy/theft of IP within the domestic Chinese market?

Or is this just another feel good do nothing puff piece announcement meant to be forgotten about when they can blame some stuff on brown people again?

aka yet another empty announcement Trump is taking credit for that won't actually come to fruition and if does remember there will be an excuse easily brought up or some distraction about minorities/muslims....

Just more kissing up and fake flattery. The authoritarian crony capitalist loves it. Thats how business is done in America now. Cronyism on stereoids.

I enjoy the fact that nobody addresses the heart of the issue, instead just "We won" "stop whining." I see how Trump's campaign was so successful. It's not about what's best for the country or even any thought out policies. Just who WON.....

Perhaps . . . However, if President Obama had found the magical wand and produced the same results . . . What would you call it then?

Nice move from Alibaba, trying to move to legitimate businesses and from being perceived as a fake goods haven.

Why do you take issue with new employment opportunities for America?

Is thought that there is a possibility of a brighter and better future for Americans too difficult to grasp or painful to understand?

Lower the pipe.
