As long as China holds 15% or more of the US dept, the govt can't really
tell China anything. I don't like importing anything that would harm
American production(furniture, steel, etc.).
A good businessman will diversify and change to stay ahead of the curve.
A poor decision would be to keep planting trees in the US when we are at
a competitive disadvantage with China, Chile and Argentina etc.
If we have more supply than demand, simply decrease supply and prices
will rise.

apples into the U.S. from China.
I don't want this to become a "All things from China are bad."
thread. But I can see both negative and positive possibilities on
allowing this. They do recommend additional measures and actions
other than the standard Port of Entry Inspection.
