Huge tax cuts and rising military spending have fueled an enormous rise in imports, and therefore a yawning trade deficit now accompanies America’s weak fiscal position. But US politicians are blaming China and other countries for “unfair trade,” even threatening them with sanctions.
奇怪但并不出人意料的是，美国正在为自身的问题抨击他人。大规模的减税和不断上涨的军事开支推动了进口的大幅度增加，因此现在巨大的贸易赤字伴随着美国虚弱的财政。但是美国的政客却责怪中国和其他国家进行“不公平贸易”，甚至威胁要制裁他们。
