Like I've said before... you want to know what path the US will take? It's the one that perpetuates beliefs in their superiority. Don't be surprised they think China will bail them out because they believe Chinese can't live without them. Look at Marjorie Taylor Green saying she will deport Jack Ma. Jack Ma isn't a US citizen nor does he live in the US so what the hell is she thinking? She thinks Jack Ma's riches came from Americans buying from Alibaba. She thinks Alibaba's main customers are Americans. This must be one of the Republican talking points they're too dumb to understand themselves because I've heard other Republicans talk about the CCP as if they were in the US too.
It is very hard to fight this kind of stupidity.
What does Ma Yun have to do with anything about American politics? He probably do not even visit the place that often.
It is just not plain stupidity, but the layers of stupidity is astounding from the American political class.
Why depot Jack Ma, when he does not even live there, and Alibaba is not the number one choice for online shopping for Americans?
The number #1 shopping site for Americans should be Amazon. There is no need to for that stupid politician to ban Alibaba from the United States.
The fact is there are a very large number of Chinese sellers on Amazon! If Americans do not go to Alibaba to buy made in China products, then made in China products go to where the action is.
Perch first looked at this situation about six months ago and found that about 45 percent of the top sellers on Amazon were based in China, according to Jackson. Another 45 percent were based in the U.S. The remaining 10 percent were from everywhere else.
Let's wait and see if the American Congress bans China Inc. from Amazon. That probably would mean Americans only buying made in America products, and the rest of the world might find other ways to buy made in China products. HAHA!
It is layers of stupidity.
Another example from my most favourite US President of all time.
China pays the tariffs.
The trade volumes between China and America goes up, Wal-Mart shoppers pays the tax.
Ban Huawei.
Ban any American IP for Huawei.
Since the first two moves did not work, ban US semiconductors to Huawei.
If the world supply chain of IC fractures because of this, and American corporations get the short end of the sticks, just another example of the layers of stupidity inside the US Federal government.
