Trade is good for everybody. If we aren't enemies we trade. If we are enemies, we fight.

There's nothing wrong with feeling resentment. If that's the way you feel, that's the way you feel. But not trading with other countries is pretty much cutting off our nose to spite our faces.

I'd say that China is more our adversary in an economic instead of shooting war now.
