| U.S. Violated Trade Rules With Tariffs on China, WTO Says |
| 2020-09-17 |
| [gCaptain]The World Trade Organization undercut the main justification for President Donald Trump’s trade war against China, saying that American tariffs on Chinese goods violate international rules. A panel of three WTO trade experts on Tuesday said the U.S. broke global regulations when it imposed tariffs on Chinese goods in 2018. Washington has imposed levies on $400 billion in Chinese exports. The panel said in its report “that the United States had not met its burden of demonstrating that the measures are provisionally justified.” |

| #7 It won't happen, but I would love nothing better than to see the UN be sent packing...don't care whither it goes, just sent it on its way. Our withdrawal from that sh!t hole organization would, of course, be ideal. |

| #6 We should consider taxing the UN. We'll start with the amount we pay and double it every three months. |
