China is asking the U.S. to meet them half way on trade practices. If someone were eating my lunch I would not settle for them to still eat half of it.

That's a good way to look at it. I strongly suspect we will get a much better deal than that.

If their asking us to meet half way it’s because they are hurting from the tariffs and it is working.

I hope that they can hurry up and get something worked out so I can sell some scrap metal for a decent price.

African swine disease is decimating their hog population. They're in more trouble than they want to admit. Who else in the world is going to buy the amount of products from these people that the US does. This might be the time to break them down economically, before it is too late and they rule the world. Which is what they want anyway.

One benefit of low scrap prices is the meth heads aren't stealing as much or ruining what they can't.

Only way we loose is if we make their leaders look weak. These dictatorships are crazy like that!

Just make it look like it was their idea and that it's the best thing since sliced bread. Make them look like idiots and they will kill everyone in their country by means of starvation to proove you wrong.
