I'm hearing about how NAFTA needs to be reformed from both candidates but I haven't heard 1 peep about China and the fact that they have been importing U.S. jobs for themselves. Why haven't I heard them talk about China? Has China become so powerful that the future leader of the U.S. doesn't want to upset them?
The following article (from 2003) states that:
* China's undervalued currency and government investment strategies have caused U.S. jobs to become uncompetitive and shrink
* China is in violation of both its International Monetary Fund and World Trade Organization obligations.
*China subsidizes manufacturers through a wide range of national industrial policies that include unfair tariffs, limits on foreign firms' access to domestic markets, unfair requirements for technology transfer by foreign investors.
