I'm kind of just skimming this thread, so I apologize if this has been repeated...but why does America sell trades with one of their enemies? I mean, I know a lot of the stuff is beneficial to us, but to what extent? I believe the American government should stop all trades with China, as China could easily spread some type of disease, or anything contagious in a small toy, send it over to America, and create a nation-wide epidemic.

Think about it, it only takes ONE toy with a unknown disease to create a nation-wide effect. I basically just recapped what i said in the previous paragraph, but I believe this is true.

Just my opinion on the matter.
