We have a balance of trade problem here in the United States.
It causes a weak dollar, which in turn adds to the cost of oil.
We can't do much today, right this very minute about how much oil we import, and the stuff we get from China is mostly cheap plastic that wouldn't be made here even if it wasn't made in China.
Besides, China's markets are open to us; Japan's are not.
Yet many of us buy Japanese products despite the fact that they block their markets to our exporters.
We should stop buying Japanese products until they open their markets.
That would strengthen the dollar, which would in turn lower what we pay for oil.
Think about that before you let a Toyota driver in traffic; remember he or she has already made it clear what they think of you, their neighbors, and this country.
