I don't think serving foreign dignitaries on paper plates is an option.
And hey, you can think of it as a stimulus package for china manufacturers! |
That china belongs to all of us huh...?
Hmm...
I also agree with the article...the timing is just wrong on so many levels.
A stimulus package for china manufacturers? Riiiight.
The porn industry asking for a bailout is a far enough stretch.
If the china industry asks for one then that is past going too far.
