China’s latest target in trade war with Australia

[Ransom]

Our relationship with China is our concern, not yours ......and a good working relationship with any country is better than what you seem to be offering.

They're offering a China-virus, debilitating tariffs, threats to your economic system, and military expansion. You're bending over because you're too dependent on them and some of you have no spine. And we've made it our concern, so......deal.

Besides , America currently has more important things to deal with than worrying about Australia , which is far less reliant on China , than America has become . Australia's prosperity over recent decades has been shared among a select few , much the same as America.....but you wouldn't acknowledge that , because you are an advocate for the few , and don't seem to give a shyit about the rest.

Australia much more reliant on China, we've recently left the TPP, have deals with Canada and Mexico, and moving military assets into Australia....which means we give a shyit about ewe Australians, PJL. As I said, if y'all are too ignorant to see the threat looming right there in front of your eyes, then we'll be forced to be of concern. Please pave the roads thicker, our armor heavy and tends to chew up asphalt and concrete.

What % of your exports go to China, PJL?

Our largest trading partner is Canada.

Canada has 18% of our export market. 16% with Mexico. 7% with China

Politely bring some facts to the table. How much of Australia's export market is dependent on China. If you don't know, just say you don't know.

That's strange.....according to recent reports (August 2020)by the US government census , China is still America's biggest trading partner (16.1%) , followed by Mexico (14.6%) , then Canada (14.5%). I'm sure you could easily find some dodgy figures to support some online forum topic you wished to take part in , but Ive always found that telling the truth and sticking to reality is a far better policy in the long run ( it tends to prevent you from fooling yourself , and trying to fool others) . .........https://www.census.gov/foreign-trade...top2008cm.html ........p.s. do you have a link to the 7% export figure ?

Australia's largest trading partner is China (july2019) at 32% , which I believe has increased during 2020 . However , the main beneficiaries of this trade are the mining companies , and although it effects Australia's GDP , it's of no great concern to the Australian populace , as the mining sector employs a very low % of the Australian workforce . SME's Ransom , it's all about SME's ( Small to Medium Enterprises) - they employ the bulk of Australian workers and employees . Australia is enjoying a growing boom in Australian produced goods and services , which is set to grow exponentially in 2021 and beyond . Many imported goods are being left on the shelf , as "Australian Made" becomes our priority . There are new business's starting all over the place to replace imported goods , and it's about time...........SME's , independence and self sufficiency , that's the future , and the US should(and can) be doing the same . Leave the coal and iron in the ground , or go back to producing our own steel and value add the resource for export to China or where ever. It's amazing where opportunity lies , if you have the right attitude to identify and grab it !

32% a reason the US needs to monitor, that is much too dependent on China, it's a no wonder many of you have so much trouble standing up to them.

And Australian made....that sounds a little like Trump's America First.

Oops.

I wish it was 50%.....it's damn profitable selling stuff to China.......at least it keeps Gina Rineheart and Ziggy Forest busy , so they don't keep annoying us real people who keep the country going.....(lol)
