So many are opposed to the U.S. placing tariffs on foreign goods; however, where is the outcry when China a Country who is enjoying a huge trade surplus with the U.S. starts placing high tariffs on U.S. products.

It is not an even playing field people. Lets even it out a little and start placing tariff's on chinese goods.

Too bad not enough follow foreign news. This is China doing what it does best..take care of China.


From your link..who knows, it could very well be true because the USG is big on subsidizing Ag.
"It said American chicken producers benefited from subsidies and were exporting their goods to China at unfairly low prices"

It being China.Yes we are to believe China. However, China did not follow the rules, which China is known for doing. How can you have fair trade with countries who do not play fairly?

When has China EVER played fair ?
And the US ....well it wouldn't surprise me. The US didn't deny the charges but are saying that China didn't follow the correct procedures to implement that tariff.

News Flash. China supplements all of their industry, since most of their industry is owned by the state. Why is the U.S. not allowed to supplement industry?
