China, Tariffs, Negotiations, And Saving Face

Big Red Car — Thu, 08 May 2025 16:24:56 +0000

One of the unique concepts of the Asian mind is the idea of “face.” It is a stew with reputation, honor, social standing, wealth, power, dignity, moral character, and integrity being the main ingredients. One may give face, lose face, or save face and the Chinese have been focused on face for more than 5,000 […]

Some Thoughts On TARIFFS

Big Red Car — Wed, 16 Oct 2024 17:29:18 +0000

Tariffs — a tax or customs duty imposed by a country at its border on goods imported from another country — are wildly misunderstood and have come into the lexicon since their use by the Trump admin and during this presidential election campaign. They are not wildly understood, sort of like calculus, differential equations, and […]

Dealing With Chinese Cotton And Xinjiang

Big Red Car — Mon, 14 Oct 2024 15:33:12 +0000

I lost power during Helene the Hurricane — lots of wind and rain in Savannah, lots of trees down and windblown tree debris. No power meant no Internet. Adding insult to injury, I had no phone though I could slip into another part of Savannah and get some 5-bar G+. I am now repowered and […]

Chinese – US trade has grown substantially since the 2001 inclusion of China in the World Trade Organization, a strategic blunder in […]

Big Red Car — Fri, 24 Feb 2023 06:09:47 +0000

China is buying all the Russian oil it can — huge discount from their new Orc pals — and is thereby funding the Putin war machine in Ukraine. Move on, nothing to see here. In the course of this, Putin and Xi have been playing a lot of canasta and watching porn together. Xi Jinping […]
