4 thoughts on “Tired of hostile Washington, China courts Indiana and Minnesota

  1. The federal government acknowledges that thousands of Chinese have crossed the border already. Wouldn’t doubt that many are on orders to set up in chosen ‘friendly’ (naive) states like ours. Banks’ suggestion to Carmel’s ‘sister city’ agreement is a nice place to start. Our country, its principles, economy, culture, economy, individuals and overall national security is being eroded every day. It’s lie a bad follow-up novel by George Orwell.

  2. Shame on any politician for trying to get in bed with China. Doing so shows a basic lack of respect or understanding of the freedoms we enjoy as Americans. Never forget Tiananmen Square where the Chinese government slaughtered its own citizens for speech it didn’t like. That’s what China thinks about freedom of speech. Watch the documentary “American Factory” if you want to see an example of China’s complete disrespect for human rights and a decent standard of living. In America, we work to live, but, in China, the people are expected to live to work. I’m sure the corporate bigwigs would love to bring more of this mentality to the U.S. That way they could work the common person even harder and longer in order to fatten company profits.
    If we are going to spend American tax dollars on EV projects or other such things, those dollars should not go to China. Most preferably, they should be spent on domestically produced products, thereby supporting American jobs and families.
    It’s no wonder Pfizer loves China. They profited mightily off of a worldwide pandemic that originated in China. Funny how no politicians seem to be pushing for the truth on how COVID 19 was released into the world.
