Like the deals are fair now? Right now it's damn hard to get our products into lots of countries. So the reason that we aren't going to protect our own companies is that we don't want to piss them off and make it harder to export. But they're already doing that. We need to protect our own companies and our own markets -- because that's how our economy grows.

At least if Americans were buying Fords and GMs, the profits would stay in America and be likely to be spent in America, rather than be shipped to Japan and spent there. If we bought RCA instead of Sony, same deal -- the RCA execs live here and would spend the money here.
I'm not concerned with imaginary "kike conspiracies" just that trade deficits have already managed to bury a few countries and would bury America as well.
The rest of the world isn't going to need us to push paper for them forever. Sooner or later the Chinese will start their own car companies and clothing companies. They won't need us, but we'll need them. If we stopped all imports, we'd not have clothing, shoes, a lot of electronics, and so on. Soon we'll add cars to that list. It won't hurt China -- they'll find other markets, probably in their growing middle class or the growing middle class of India. We'd be fucked.
We need Saudi Arabia because we can't function without the oil -- but if America disappeared tommarow, they wouldn't be hurt all that much, they'd sell to China. They aren't afraid of us. They don't really have to worry that we'll call them on their bullshit of winking at terrorists -- they got the oil and they know we can't afford to do much to them because our economy would stop without them.
