    Default Jack Ma says it can't create 1 million jobs in U.S. due to Trump's China tariffs

    MAGA


    Last year, Chinese online sales giant Alibaba said it could create 1 million jobs in the United States over the next five years by building a marketplace where American small businesses could sell to China’s burgeoning middle class.

    Now Alibaba Chairman Jack Ma says with U.S.-China trade becoming increasingly contentious, the promise cannot be fulfilled.

    In an interview Wednesday with Xinhua, the official state-run press agency of the People's Republic of China, Ma said the idea was premised on a friendly U.S.-China partnership and rational trade relations.

    “That premise no longer exists today, so our promise cannot be fulfilled,” he said

    “If we have to have a choice between being dead and pitied, and being alive with a bad image, we’d rather be alive and have the bad image.”

    — Golda Meir

    Zionism is the movement for the self-determination and statehood for the Jewish people in their ancestral homeland, the land of Israel.


    “If Hamas put down their weapons, there would be no more violence. If the Jews put down their weapons, there would be no Israel."

    BTW, Forbes says jobs are not coming back:

    China must stop forcing U.S. firms to share intellectual property: Trump trade official
    https://www.usatoday.com/story/opini...umn/563151001/
    China has adopted an industrial policy specifically designed to force the transfer of technology from American businesses to Chinese firms in order to gain an unfair advantage and build a dominant global presence. China’s joint venture requirement for certain American companies is the poster child for its strategy. Companies that want to produce in China and sell into the Chinese market must enter into joint ventures that result in their technology being turned over to their Chinese partners. The United States, on the other hand, imposes no such reciprocal requirements.

    Increasingly, China is also forcing U.S. companies to localize their research and development — the seed corn of future IP — on Chinese soil. Further, China is coercing American firms into providing its state-owned enterprises with below-market acquisition and licensing terms while asserting ownership over any improvements made to the licensed technology.

    hes not going to create a million jobs in the US. by his very admission his role is to hook the customers up with the businesses in the US. Its still those businesses that create the jobs not him.

    That said there are other avenues into china especially if we are talking about online retailing.

    As usual, you cite a lying Trump post to support your lies, and not answer my question.
