Per that list, the US counts for a little over 10% of China’s trade, and if the previous comment is accurate, that’s 10% of, at most, 40%. So, let’s say ~5% of the economy in a worst-case scenario.

It’s not nothing, but they could probably make it nothing in a couple of years, at the pace they’ve been going.

The Yemenis are badass. I wish them nothing but success against the empire and its minions.

Guy sold have kept quiet and just relayed everything straight to Yemen.

What do you think these companies were freely competing for? It’s profits. It has always been profits.

I see Canada looking pretty yellow here, but we just had a provincial government call an early election and send out $200 bribe cheques. Sure they don’t call it a bribe, but I haven’t gotten a paper cheque from the government in years (direct deposit, yay) and now I have a paper cheque and a voter card showing up in my mailbox just days apart. It’s getting pretty obvious over here.

This looks suspiciously like a map of whiteness.

The current israeli state is the anti-semite’s greatest ally.
