Shouldn't free societies boycott China

[K9Buck]

China is a corrupt, totalitarian regime. They threaten their neighbors and the world. So, why do we do business with them? Could we affect positive change by boycotting them? We (the U.S.) couldn't possibly do it alone. But, imagine if the U.S., Europe, Japan, South Korea, Australia, Israel, our Latin-American friends, etc., etc., etc. all boycotted Chinese goods until such time that they adopted democratic values. Isn't that what all of us should do?

China pretty much owns the US. Dont listen to the propaganda.

We're funding their military, space and cyber activities that, one day, might be unleashed against us.

This may come as shock to some of ya’ll, but the dollar almost always outweighs the cross.

Not sure you are getting what I am saying. China owns much of the US debt. A better thing would be to stop borrowing money from China.

Thanks for the clarification.

Somehow, someway, the free world should combat China economically until such time that it adopts democratic systems and values.

If you are a Leftist Elitist Corporate Scum Bag, you kiss China's Ass for providing you with Yellow Slaves to make the Chinese goods you mark up 300%.

You also kiss Latin America's ass for providing you with Brown Slaves to work in your sweat shops and on your plantations.

Once you learn that this is the foundation The Left is built upon which is the oppression of all peoples, you will look in the mirror and realize that The Left's Radical Move towards Socialism is just an attempt to put you in the same chains they have put others in for the last 200 years.

Nah China is a pretty hefty trading partner with loads of countries. None of them would upset that apple cart.
