The FTZ are still US soil, in no way is it China's soil...so you can relax
Just because you repeat something over and over does not mean it is true. If it US soil then things manufactured there would not be imports. Imports only come from foreign soil. Everything manufactured there is considered an import according to the law. Hence it is foreign soil!
ITEMS have a special status in FTZ, NOT people!! It IS US soil, and US laws apply, not Chinese law, not Senegalese law, not Sharia....US LAW! It is US soil
Don't believe me, go to a FTZ, kick in a window...and then see which cops come to pick you up
I'm just repeating it because you refuse to accept reality

May hit a nerve here but when you create so much debt, inevitably the debt collectors will come calling. Before the US of A would have just went to war and destroied all their creditors or distracted the masses and getting themselves out of a recession by killing and making bombs, but now they have woken a sleeping giant and its coming for its rightful territory. The great US of A is no longer the strongest on this planet, i'm afraid the days of the USA beating up everyone else are over and it has no choice to do this or face its destruction at the hands of China, because we all no if the USA and China go to war...big old angry Russia will be there to coax on China and aid them in whatever they need, be that tanks, men or a few thousand nukes!!!
The American Dream was only ever a dream, its time to wake up!
Days of USA beating up everyone?
You forget we feed half of the dam planet.
So how do you think China and Russia will get these tanks to America? No mater what our economy is doing it is still the biggest and our military is the most powerful by far. China has a population of 1,331,460,000 and only a 7 trillion dollar economy. America has 311,000,000 and a economy of 14 trillion.
Then you forgot we have allies throughout the world. So go take your theory and present it to a kindergarten class because they are the only ones that would buy into it.

I see the don't worry be happy crowd is out in force and have failed to answer the question below refuse to read the whole OP. What a sad day in America when her own people will try and rationalize her take over by a foreign power as we deserve it or there is nothing to worry about:
"So what is with all the "don't worry be happy" crowd? Are you telling me your ok with China building multiple bases in all 50 states? And that means more then one in each state. 3 are planned for Idaho. They will have thier own labor force and little if any American oversight or regulation etc. the only thing they will have is Customs is supposed to check what comes out onto American soil for sale and for duties. this is the same China that has sent us tainted products and baby food etc. "
China has more personnel, more gold, more merchant marine personnel, a far bigger Army, a slightly smaller Air Force and Navy. The fact still remains that a War between the two nations IMO would leave the USA worse off in far more ways that one. You would be left with little economical power (not that your in good shape just now), the USA in my opinion would not be able to invade China, and i dont think China would invade the USA but even if the USA used its aircraft carriers next to China, Russia wouldnt be happy with it and i'm quite sure NK would be happy to help out China. I'd rather have the allies that China has in my opinion than those the USA has because if your reffering to the Allies of the US being the EU nations etc, i dont think they'd jump at the chance of WWIII, to be honest.
Too many times has the US allies helped them out and been left off in worse situations, just look at Iraq...the US isnt as favourable as it once was and i think the world has grasped that idea because the consumerist based economy that you have isnt being sustained at the degree it once was.edit on 31/1/11 by jrmcleod because: (no reason given)
"America has about twice as many aircraft carriers as the rest of humanity combined, and America's aircraft carriers are substantially larger than almost all the other's aircraft carriers.www.globalsecurity.org...

Read the whole OP please before commenting people.
This is no joking matter folks, they will be given thier own sovereign territory to set up manufacturing at slave wages not hiring Americans but importing thier own slave labor from China. And it is tax free for them not you. This isn't about Chinese restaurants and junk shops folks this is serious treason allowing them to set up shop on our soil and manufacture here they won't need to ship weapons here now they will make them right under our noses. This is a trojan horse take over. Wake up!
