RE TRADE ISSUES ETC and fattening things up etc

Been reading The Coming Conflict With China, 1997,
still worthwhile reading, even now.
One of their problems, though, they both embrace free trade and comparative advantage, so do not draw enlightened conclusions even from the extensive investigations and experiences they have had with international trade. Too bad really.
Particularly helpful are the passages re domestic political influence, and transfer of technology.
Still haven't read later chapters, eg 'China's Plan For Japan'.
Looking forward to that.
"What would the Founding Fathers have said?"
Terms search 'fattening things up',
various other cartoons, Nixon Shock, Fattening Things Up
