We are giving them the wealth and the technology in which they can make that communist system a success. They can keep their people repressed. The more wealth they get, and the more nuclear, and more weaponry advances they make within their system, the more aggressive they ve been. For example, they continue to rattle their saber at Taiwan. Day by day, they threaten Taiwan, they ve expanded their influence into the South China Sea, they ve threatened countries like the Philippine Islands and others on their territorial plane.
China is an aggressor nation, and they re going to build an empire in Asia.
They re determined to do that, and we are giving them the wealth and the technology in order to do that. PNTR is an absolutely vital vote for labor, but in truth, it s a vital vote for America, and the system that we espouse, what we stand for, the principles of democracy and freedom, of human rights. This is a vital vote for us. We re not even considering that, at this time. What we re looking at now is focusing on the China vote.
