Introduction:

Trade between China and the United States is a battle we all know the U.S. has been fighting for quite some time. This topic is very important in our field of Apparel and Textiles. It is an ongoing processes as the U.S. tries to figure out ways on how to blend the gap of imports and exports. The U.S. is billions of dollars in debt with China because of the trade difference. Trade with China has gotten our country in a big hole that we can 't come out over a course of a few years. This has built mistrust and slight tension between the two countries.

We will also discuss how the TPP no yarn rule would greatly affect America. Many manufacturers would be put to an end. We will discuss the top 5 imports between both countries and the price for it. China is the world 's largest economy. China has the upper hand because the amount that they pay for something is less than the amount in dollars the United States would have to pay for the same thing.

Review of Literature:

Trading between the United States and China started way back in 1784 when the British refused to make a deal with the Americans. The Americans were looking for new markets to buy goods from. China saw America, then as the land of opportunities just as many others did. China even shaped some of their political beliefs from Abraham Lincoln. In the 1800s some believed that China should be broken up into colonies, but the United States believed that China should remain independent. They thought this would be more beneficial to the United States. This lead to the open door policy which meant that China would have an open door to foreign investment and trade.

...nd Peru. The pact aims to deepen economic ties between these nations, slashing tariffs and fostering trade to boost growth. By doing this it will increase jobs and growth in the United States. Incomes will be increased due to a lower cost of goods. Along with it will increase exports of goods and services.

Overall, I believe the United States can gain back control of this issue if they start implementing new laws and regaining its power that China has had over us. No decision will be easy and it will all create a big shift in our economy in orders to get us on the right track. The United States has to has to chose what is more important and how dedicated they are into making these changes to fix the trade deficit. Us as Americans have to be willing to stand behind our country regardless of the impact knowing that this will be beneficial to us in the long run.

    Bearing in mind that the threat of China’s dependency on imports of natural resources has the potential to threaten the official ideology of Confucianism, the real threat is to the interests of the state and the Communist Party of China, because the future of the party and stability of the country is dependent on the continued growth of the Chinese economy. Maintaining the flow of raw materials is the main objective of the PRC because without them the economic engine of the China would be at a stand still, which has the potential to be seen by the people of China as a weakness and flaws in the current governing system. China should continue developing trade relations and international connections because the PRC has been remarkably successful in creating a network of countries who will be loyal in business and political reform. China has has a strategic focus on building relations with nations whom America is not keen on. This has also perpetuated the realization the the Chinese system of governance provides a second option to the ‘Western Consensus’, as a viable means for successful economic growth coupled with strict government control. China must operate multilaterally to continue the trajectory of relation and loyalty building in other countries. This will assist china with the key pillar goals of, building a comprehensive national power; advance incrementally in order to consolidate a position of strength, and maintaining stability, and with the objective that China will be in the position to continue imports of raw material to Chinese industry in the event of a sea trade embargo from opposition countries like the United...

    With deserts and the Himalayas running along most of the border, it was extremely difficult to cross over one of the most dangerous mountain ranges in the world and a few other scorching deserts with the little transport they had during that time. The only way merchants could come into the country was the southeastern coast of China, where most of the prosperous cities resided. What led China to become conceited was because they had an abundance of goods that most of the world wanted. In the 1760-1830s, China was famous for its porcelain (rich Europeans loved it), silk, and of course, tea. Since this Eastern Powerhouse’s goods were so popular, therefore, there were only a few things that interested them to trade with.

China has, by some estimates, a surplus rural labor force of 120 million people, many of whom migrate to industrial centers to look for factory work, and drive down wages. As long as wages are low, the United States will continue to gobble up products made in China, while Chinese consumers will prefer to buy cheaper, homespun alternatives to American products. The rise in trade deficit with China has come at a cost to jobs in the United States, accordin...

    ...es currently does possess an enormous trade deficit, but the importance of this problem and the best means of solving it is a sharply debated issue. Clearly, while a return to protectionist policy would have some positive effects in the short run, it ultimately would undue the enormous growth that free international trade has caused for the US economy. The more moderate approach, of increasing domestic capital, reducing reliance upon foreign money and goods, and reducing government spending, deals with the situation much more effectively. A deficit is often times natural, especially in a wealthy country with a very strong economy, such as the US. Using these techniques, the negative aspects of the deficit can be overcome, while still ensuring the efficiency and affectivity of a liberal international trade system.
