Alibaba will no longer bring 1 million jobs to the US, citing tariffs

Alibaba’s founder and chairman Jack Ma says the Chinese mega e-commerce company no longer has plans to create 1 million jobs in the US, citing the ongoing trade conflict as the reason Alibaba is retracting its promise to Donald Trump. A new round of tariffs between the US and China will make mutual trade more difficult.

Ma told Chinese state-run news outlet Xinhua today that his promise was based on the assumption that the US and China would have “rational trade relations,” which is no longer the case. “This promise was based on friendly US-China partnership and rational trade relations,” Ma said. “The current situation has already ruined that. There is no way to complete the promise now, but we won’t stop working hard to promote the healthy development of China-US trade.” Last week, Ma announced his plans to retire this year and hand over the company to its current CEO. He denied rumors that he was being forced out.

The initial promise was made in January last year, right before Trump’s inauguration.

REMEMBER THAT PROMISE THAT I TOTALLY MADE TO BRING SIXTY TRILLION JOBS TO THE WETBACKS GWAILO? WELL IM NOT GOING TO NOW!

Free trade works. Outside of small third world countries trying to build up weak industry, protectionism is super super gay, and only means lower supply and higher prices. Just because you don't want to give more and more people citizenship doesn't mean you don't want open trade with other countries. The two things are totally different, yet Trump style "economic nationalists" conflate the two.

Normally this is true and I'd agree with you, but Chinese trade is anything but "free trade." They're dishonest cunts who swindle businesses out of shit all the time, and who don't actually have a leg to stand on if not for the government-run mega-corporations in China.

Oh noes, a chink doesn't gain even more influence in the US. How terrible.
We should do no more business with China than absolutely necessary.
六四天安门广场大屠杀

Every country that's received chinese investment knows that the "jobs" they create will for some reason need to be filled by a chinese speaking person or require some exotic qualifications that makes it necessary for them to bring in a specialist from china. Their factory zones also become walled enclaves that the local authorities need their permission to enter.

The USA should be thankful they won't be bringing in 1 million sleeper agents.

You faggots are full of shit.
You've ignored for decades the import bans and insane tariffs china has had and instead prop it up as a shining example of capitalism and free trade.
Blow it out your ass.

Free trade does work. That's why the US is going to start doing more business with India than China since Indians will do it cheaper than chink slaves which is pretty damn cheap when you think about it. Have fun trying to sell nearly as much shit to anyone, China. Maybe those tariffs and bans on US goods were not such a good idea after all hmmmm?

Corporate Machines are all the same, but they operate differently based on which legal system they have to amalgamate with. Free Trade has a winner and a loser with the way the loan system works. There needs to be a completely different set of international banking laws, but the powers that be will never allow the power to shift away from themselves.

There's one problem with that.
China requires you to basically pay $50 and you get a form saying you can legally own a business in China.
India took years of legal battles in their congress equivalent just to be able to sell Coca Cola in India.
India is not a good place to do business unless you're well-established already (mega corporations), can operate outside of India/only pay Indians wages in India while hosting your business overseas (tech companies), or you do things under-the-table.

Shut up burger fuck, your kind has the entire blame for this situation.

Trump is right on this one. He's trying to get some bargaining power for his fellow burgers, since China wouldn't, otherwise, lower its import taxes to something close to the already low ones 'murica has.

So, basically:

Alibaba is just a China's bitch, it seems. It's threating Trump with its irrelevant suicide for political reasons (1m jobs? kek terrible bluff). Irrelevant to 'murica, but relevant to itself. It's a self-destructive threat.

God's War.

You mean fucking China in the ass well thank you feels good to know that every American had a hand in giving China a black eye.

Trump and Every president is preseaalected. They talk in codes and about dates and you should learn the cyphers because if more people are breaking their codes the Fallen ones will be Revealed and God will come. The Book of Enoch.

Oh damn I also "cancelled" "my plans" to bring ""1 million jobs"" to the US.

It was a tough decision but my commie dictatorship govt ERRR my gut feeling was to cancel this "absolutely going to happen" endeavour.

It does, assuming you don't let yourself get buttfucked based on an agenda ie. gloabalism

This is a correction thats been ridiculously over due because not had it become dangerously one sided the US has been aiding and abetting a hostile power by this massive trade imbalance.

such chumparoo

Shit take. Free trade is globalism.

Good
Its funny how leftists sperg out about "muh tarrifs" which btw is Trumps only good policy this year and completely ignore how fucking bad globalization is for the environment
You're complaining that your iPhone is going to cost more, not realising the amount of petrol used, or the fact the chinks and niggers are destroying the environment and wildlife in Africa so they can get some fancy conductor for your shitty consumer shit
Remember keep it local

It works at fucking over White Men while the likes get richer

You see user, the only reason they are destroying the world is because they are disadvantaged. Their government makes pennies and is most certainly NOT one of the largest superpowers in the world, no. It's all the AMERIMUTTS FAULT!!!!
IT'S BECAUSE OF THE AMERIMUTT WE HAVE GLOBAL WARMING AND SKIN CANCER AND LIQUOR AND THE BLACK MARKET AND DRUGS AND CRIME AND VAGINAL MUTILATION
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

If we have globalism, clearly the chinks and poo-in-the-loos will clearly shape up and do right instead of continuing to fuck things over. Yes. I am feeling very enlightened now. Excuse me while I huff my own farts.

Sounds like jew money fraud company to me.
Uhh.
Okay? Good.
