Much of the routine trade and investment between China and America is entirely appropriate and in America’s interest. But inserting the Chinese Communist Party into America’s pay-to-play system and its economic development strategy isn’t just crossing a line. It’s a leap into an abyss of stupidity.
IL-one of the most politically corrupt states in the US. Been that way for decades. Politicians here will not touch it. That and Tier 1 public pension/medical are off limits. We will change that eventually, and that’s for sure.
Eventually? As has been said here already countless times any outright reduction or even dimishment of a public employee pension simply isn’t legal.
