content: Trump announces tariffs on $200 million of China crap. Markets plunge 400 points. Builderberg marching orders at work. Trump asked the United States Trade Representative to identify $200 billion worth of Chinese goods for additional tariffs, at a rate of 10 percent. If China "refuses to change its practices" and insists on continuing with the new tariffs it recently declared, then the additional levies would be imposed on Beijing, Trump said Monday night. Soon after, the Chinese Commerce Ministry issued a response, stating that the latest threat of more tariffs violates previous negotiations and consensus reached between both the U.S. and China. "The United States has initiated a trade war that violates market laws and is not in accordance with current global development trends," the ministry said. -- https://www.cnbc.com/2018/06/19/us-stock-futures-trade-tensions-in-focus-for-investors.html In plain English, "Americans should be happy to be screwed over by China!"
