In 2009, President Obama announced tariffs increased to 35% on tire imports from China. It's broke
China tire producer's heart. President Obama decided increased tire tariffs for protect the domestic relative
tire industry. In fact, China become the main antidumping country of the world in recent years. Many
country increasing tariffs to limit China both import and export product. Why China's import and export
always are low price? Most of products that I have ever seen are made in China! Only because the cheap
labor cost in China?
I realized that America people didn't ate chicken feet when I came to the United States. They think
chicken feet are a lowly thing. However, most Asia people eat chicken feet, especially in Chinese
mainland. We like to eat chicken feet because the meat on the bone are very delicious. Chicken farmers of
America found that the chicken feet had a huge market value in China. In 2008, the U.S. exported $677
million worth of chicken to China. Actually, U.S. exports chicken feet to China is a good thing for both of
country. Nevertheless, it's ended by China imposed antidumping tariffs from 43.1% to 105.4% on
imports of chicken parts in 2010. Some people thought the chicken feet event were the China revenge
for the tire tariff of America. I think every country do the tariff adjustment because they are trying to
protect their own economy. The trade war will never end between countries.
Tariffs seem to be the only logical answer to solving the problems of trade wars. We have to be careful that we are not perpetuating the problem, however.
