Biden plans to address medical supply shortages by making them harder to obtain. 🙃
But you HAVE TO VOTE FOR HIM. Or else………
President Joe Biden is set to announce new China tariffs as soon as next week targeting strategic sectors including electric vehicles, solar panels and steel.
So, are Teslas manufactured in Elon’s Shanghai plant also subject to the tariffs? If so, ouch.
Also, wtf is with the English usage? “China medical supplies”? “China” is a noun, not an adjective. I mean, I think an actual Chinese person with a couple years of HS English study would have gotten that correct…
English allows almost any noun in the language to be used as an adjective in exactly this way. This usage is completely grammatical.
Normal people don’t use China as an adjective. They say “Chinese.” Don’t pretend this is fine.
Fine, but not when there’s already an established common usage. If I go around saying America army instead of American army, that would not be proper.
Depending on context, it might be.
When american companies gutted american manufacturing to outsource those jobs to china, they did nothing to stop it. Apparently there was nothing wrong with any of what china does when it benefits american companies.
But now china has their own companies, now the profits from chinese business will stay in china, so they do a trade war.
This trade war with china is entirely driven by corruption and racism.
