Smithsonian Sells “Made in China” Products

China: Wealth but Not Freedom

The Russians Fooled Us Again
By Phyllis Schlafly It looks like the Russians fooled U.S. negotiators again about a nuclear weapons treaty.

Wake Up to Indigenous Innovation
By Phyllis Schlafly The right of inventors to own their own inventions is a precious American right written into our U.S. Constitution even before the famous rights of freedom of speech and religion. This inventors' right is uniquely American: it was an original creation by the Founding Fathers and it's still unique in the world. That's [...]
Free Trade with China Cheats America
By Phyllis Schlafly Some people foolishly call our relationship with China "free trade." But there is nothing free or fair about it; we are in a trade war between a militantly protectionist Communist government and a U.S. shackled by obsolete illusions about trade. The whole notion of free trade with China is dishonest. China is pumping [...]
China is NOT the Future
By Alan Caruba Last year I read a book, “China’s Megatrends: The 8 Pillars of a New Society” by John and Doris Naisbitt and was so entranced I completely neglected my normal skepticism and missed all the signals that what I was reading was essentially propaganda. I wonder now how I could have missed this after reading just the first [...]
China, Russia Insist Libya’s Suspension From U.N. ‘Not a Precedent’

Free Trade with Protectionist China Cheats America
By Phyllis Schlafly It looks like the Russians fooled us again in nuclear treaty negotiations.

G.E.’s Change of Heart About China
By Phyllis Schlafly A few years ago, General Electric caved into the Chinese government's demand that G.E. build a large wind turbine factory in China.

Self-Inflicted Poverty
Liberty Alerts, CNSNews.com Why is it that Egyptians do well in the U.S. but not in Egypt?

Building China Into a World Hegemonic Superpower
American Gumbo with Diane Alden Yes, lets continue to build militaristic Statist controlled economy and 5000 year old hegemonic civilization into a world super power.

China Is Not Free

North Korea, China’s Hidden Dagger
By Alan Caruba The Korean War ended in a stalemate in 1953. Having begun on June 25, 1950 with the blessings of Joseph Stalin, an armistice agreement on July 27, 1953 left the peninsula divided between the Republic of South Korea and the Peoples Republic of North Korea. How long ago was that? Dwight D. Eisenhower was elected largely on the [...]

Voters are Distracted in a Dangerous World
By Alan Caruba It is natural that Americans would be focused on the November 2nd elections, but it is worrisome that they are also distracted from a world that grows more volatile and dangerous by the day.
