| To the Editor: If we wouldn't buy Chinese products . . . |

All during the election both parties were bashing the Chinese badly and pointing to a lot of our problems being their fault. It seems to me if the American people weren't buying their products they wouldn't be shipping them to us. Now that the election is over many U.S. businesses and politicians are visiting China to discuss their buying some of our properties and starting up business over here. On one hand that seems like a good idea by putting people back to work but when you realize the profits from those companies go back to China and they use those profits to buy more U.S. property. I have trouble making sense of this. Years ago I loved visiting Yellowstone National Park to see the scenery and wild animals. I wonder in later years if my great-grandchildren would visit Yellowstone but not to see what I saw but to view and eat at the world's largest Chinese buffet and restaurant? Gary Brents Weston |

Well smarty pants, why don't YOU write a letter then, and inspire us all.
Chuck, let me help you understand Gary's thesis, maybe then it will be easier for you to respond. It's simple; "...if the American people weren't buying their (Chinese) products, they wouldn't be shipping them to us". It's your choice! It is everyone's choice, what to buy and where to buy it. My own spin on Gary's writing is that some products just don’t warrant an exorbitant U.S., (Union) wages to manufacture! Unions have driven U.S. Company’s over-seas to find willing workers who can make their products at an affordable rate, so there is STILL room left over to make a profit. There you have it! Would you now like to chime in?
A good example for seeking higher education. Far as housing, there are MORE that enough government services (and MONEY) available for anyone CHOOSING to raise a family on minimum wage.
Those Chinese "Slaves" are HAPPY to have the work. Besides they make quality products, and do it WITHOUT corrupt Union interference.
It would get rid of those nasty unions, and grinding poverty is only a minor annoyance, but so worth it!
Just...wow.
You make funny statements about the upper class, but we can find your massive Perrysburg house on the internet. HOw many lots IS that 4?
Do you consider salaries earned by people who work in the public sector to be entitlements and not honest work?
He is an irrelevant troll. No one agrees with him anyway.
He cries about people being bloodsuckers, or whatever, but he is the very worst kind. He does nothing but take-take-take, and never contributes to his community in any way. I think he hates PEOPLE.
He says he sleeps good at night, but he is too angry for that & we all know it.
1. Nobody wants to take anybody's guns, and nobody is going to do so without search warrants. I don't read comic books like WND, so I have no idea where you are getting this garbage.
2. How much money do you think professors make that you call them the "Upper Class Education crowd"? Did you know that many of them make less than K-12 teachers?
3. I am a proud owner of a Honda. Made in the U.S.A. The distinction between foreign and domenstic automobiles is not as great as it was when you were a kid.
4. As to your last comment on education: yet you oppose paying teachers the way teachers are paid in Japan. Or Germany. Teachers are NOT overpaid in the U.S. Or Finland. Or Korea. Or any place that outperforms us. You wouldn't know educational quality if it ran over your pet gerbil.
Why do you think schools "focus on entitlements"? It doesn't make any sense, and I don't even know what it means. I do think students are entitled to be taught how to tell the difference between good sources of information and garbage ones, something that you apparently never learned.
WHAT? Where did you find racism in Gary's letter? That term is used WAY too losely these days.
Read the last sentence. Read it again.
"I Love Walmart" is a clear sign of psychological disorder. Talk about contributing to the problem.
What does the "Communist Party" even mean, if their economic system is so heavily market driven?
