U.S.-Japan Trade

Our trade and economic policies have been consumed by the “MBA Establishment” fear that the Japanese won’t buy our bonds, won’t buy our hotels, won’t buy our consumer goods and that a trade war will be catastrophic to our economy. Total nonsense!

You expect the Japanese to buy Brazilian bonds maybe? Perhaps West German bonds now that it will have to assume the burden of East German chaos? Don’t be ridiculous! We still have have the only stable place left in the world in which to deal in spite of the mess left to us by “Total Recall Ronnie” and his Wall Street cronies.

No. Clancy is right. Let’s get behind our own innovators and manufacturers and get rid of the trade barriers to our goods everywhere.
