China's predatory and anti-competitive trade practices, undervalued yuan, hacking, espionage, IP theft, etc., need to be formally recognised and penalised. They have lied, cheated and robbed their way to the top, and the West is in serious danger of being subdued by thugs who have seized control of the world by acting like criminals.

Back in the days of their entry into the WTO, we _knew_ the Chinese Communist Party were literally thuggish peasant bandits in suits. Wiser heads knew they absolutely could not be trusted. Yet weak minds, including the Harvard MBA class got greedy little dollar signs in their eyes and thought they could make money. They were led like pigs to the slaughter by people who have never been anything but our adversaries.
