Without this 40-year plan executed by our political leaders, China would still be a third-world country.
Back in the 1950s, President Richard Nixon was a staunch anti-communist. In Jan. 1969, one week into his presidency, Nixon met with his National Security Advisor Henry Kissinger, Rockefeller’s right-hand man, and immediately thereafter Communist China was moved into high-priority status. In July 1971 Kissinger secretly visited Beijing during a trip to Pakistan, and laid the groundwork for Nixon's visit to China.
Nixon’s 1972 visit to the People’s Republic of China was an important step in formally normalizing relations between the United States and China. It marked the first time a U.S. president had visited the People’s Republic of China, who at that time considered the U.S. one of its staunchest foes. The visit has become a metaphor for an unexpected or uncharacteristic action by a politician.
After Nixon's visit he spoke about what this meant for the two countries in the future:
"This was the week that changed the world, as what we have said in that Communique is not nearly as important as what we will do in the years ahead to build a bridge across 16,000 miles and 22 years of hostilities which have divided us in the past. And what we have said today is that we shall build that bridge."
President Gerald Ford’s one term presidency lasted from Aug. 1974 to Jan. 1977. Ford visited China one time, but the substance of the visit was in what Secretary of State Henry Kissinger called “personal assessments.” Kissinger also indicated that in order to "normalize" diplomatic relations with Peking, the U.S. may eventually pull its troops and the U.S. embassy out of Taiwan.
President Jimmy Carter was a one-term governor of a small southern state with no national or international experience. Although it was a close election Carter beat President Ford. He held that office from Jan. 1977 to Jan. 1981. Carter became the first president from the Deep South since before the Civil War. Once elected, Carter named Zbigniew Brzezinski, Rockefeller’s left-hand man, as his National Security Adviser. Brzezinske encouraged Carter to expand American contacts with Communist China. In Aug. 1977 an "Agreement in Principle" was signed with Panama, relinquishing U.S. rights to the Panama Canal to Red China. This paved the way for containers filled with cheap and often poisonous Chinese goods to enter the U.S.
Although the transaction wasn’t fully revealed until the Carter administration, in 1974 under Nixon, Kissinger promised Panamanian operation of the canal by 1999, and an end to U.S. occupation, thereby establishing Panamanian sovereignty. But Carter was attacked for "giving away" the Panama Canal and public opinion polls showed that three-quarters of the American people were opposed to it.
Carter continued to expand American contacts with communist China, granting the communist regime formal diplomatic recognition on Jan. 1, 1979. To do so required the severing of diplomatic ties and withdrawal of recognition of non-communist Taiwan. Trade relations were established between China and the U.S. which opened the door to imports of finished consumer goods from China.
Gerald Ford, Nixon's successor, appointed George H. W. Bush to be Chief of the U.S. Liaison Office in the People’s Republic of China. Since the U.S. at the time maintained official relations with the Republic of China on Taiwan and not the People’s Republic of China, the Liaison Office did not have the official status of an embassy and Bush did not formally hold the position of "ambassador", though he unofficially acted as one. The 14 months that Bush spent in China was beneficial for US and Chinese relations, and as president he continued to expand that relationships.
According to Matt Smith of CNN, Oct. 2000, “President William Clinton closed years of political and economic debate Tuesday, and sealed a major achievement of his administration by signing a bill extending permanent, normal trade status to China. The 1999 bill eased China's entry into the World Trade Organization With World Trade Organization membership; China will make significant cuts in its tariffs, thus opening its markets to the products and investment of America and other countries. "Trade with China will not only extend our nation's unprecedented economic growth, it offers us a chance to help shape the future of the world's most prosperous nation and to reaffirm our own global leadership for peace and prosperity," he said.
The Clinton North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) was the wholesale slaughter of the American middle class that initiated another relinquishment of power.
This North American Free Trade Agreement treaty dissolved our borders of sovereignty and permitted access to foreigners: “China must grant Americans and others the right to setup distribution points within the country, open its financial and service sectors to international competitors, and allow outside participation in the development of its Internet and telecommunications sectors.”
U.S. companies provided China’s entire economic and business technology, and due to a convenient lack of alternative goods, U.S. leaders could guarantee that Americans would buy the cheap products “Made in China.” Huge incentives and tax-breaks were offered U.S. companies as enticements to relocate to China. And the oppressive business policies imposed by the Federal Government proved to be convincing motivations for U.S. companies to seek restriction-free, regulation-free, tax-free, Chinese employee-benefit-free super-cheap labor. China was transformed into a superpower because U.S. consumers purchased Chinese products, produced by American technology, American companies, and American financed factories.

It was Kenneth R. Timmerman, Nov. 2000, of the Center For Trade Policy Studies that revealed: “Among the critical technologies the Chinese needed were U.S. supercomputers. In 1998, during the Clinton/Gore administration 600 military-grade supercomputers, the equivalent of one thousand trillion mathematical operations per second, were shipped to China.” Without supercomputers, China could not contend in high-finance markets.
Aug. 2006, Jerome Corsi or WorldNetDaily reported: “Under the Bush Administration, the U.S. trade deficit with Communist China has expanded dramatically, increasing our dependency on China as a source of foreign exchange currency into which the U.S. Treasury sells debt to finance the large and seemingly endless Bush Administration budget deficits.”
The Moscow Times reported in Jan. 9, 2002, “In a move that pits national security concerns against commercial interests, U.S. President George Bush has eased restrictions on the export of supercomputers to Russia, China, Pakistan and a group of more than three dozen countries.
“The decision marks the second time computer export restrictions have been eased since 1999 and comes amid heightened national security concerns following the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks on the Pentagon and World Trade Center. It also comes nearly a month after Bush vowed to ‘toughen export controls.’
“The Bush Administration also had to consider the effects on Taiwan, Hong Kong, American and Chinese economies. The Bush team came to the conclusion that there were other measures that could be taken besides revoking Most Favorite Nation status in order to respond to Tiananmen."
After China suppressed its democracy movement and the Tiananmen Square protest in 1989, Congress opposed continuation of the country's Most Favorite Nation status, yet both Bush and Clinton renewed those benefits.
Robert Oak, of Economic Populist, May 9, 2009, tells us what GM is doing with U.S. taxpayer dollars. “General Motors Corp. will shift more production of vehicles bound for the U.S. market to China, Mexico, South Korea and Japan, but will keep total imports at roughly one-third of all sales here.
“In a confidential 12-page presentation to members of Congress, obtained by The Detroit News on Friday, General Motors said it will boost U.S. sales of vehicles built in those four countries by 98 percent -- or about 365,000 vehicles -- while shrinking production in Canada, Australia and European countries by about 130,000 vehicles.
“General Motors also disclosed it will start importing vehicles made in China in 2011, reaching 51,546 vehicles in 2014. Imports from South Korea to the United States will jump from 36,967 vehicles in 2010 to 157,126 in 2014.”
In the Automotive News Europe, Aug. 2010, Paul McVeigh, tells us: “General Motors Co. will start selling cars under the Opel brand in China by the end of this year, Opel CEO Nick Reilly said in a newspaper interview. China will be Opel's first new global market, followed by Australia and two Latin American countries, Reilly told the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung in an interview published last week. GM has in the past shied away from aggressively selling Opel cars in markets outside Europe because of fears that they could cannibalize sales of its other brands such as Chevrolet, Buick and Australia's Holden, which use Opel technology.”
Edmund Klamann on, Jan. 23, or Reuters reported: “SHANGHAIGeneral Motors expects to build a new Greenfield manufacturing facility in the near future in China to accommodate strong growth in the world's largest auto market.”

According to the Salt Lake City Examiner March 2009, Retired Major General James Jones, the National Security Advisor for the Obama administration, addressed the Council on Foreign Relations and told those in attendance exactly what his chain of command is. "As the most recent National Security Advisor of the United States, I take my daily orders from Dr. Kissinger, filtered down through General Brent Scowcroft and Sandy Berger, who is also here. We have a chain of command in the National Security Council that exists today."
This sedition was first initiated through President Richard Nixon by his National Security Adviser Henry Kissinger and nurtured to the current President Barak Obama over 40-years later. Because of the subversive actions of seven U.S. Presidents from both political parties America’s businesses, factories, technology and jobs are being relocated to enrich China, India and other third-world countries. This could never have transpired without the treasonous actions of our political leaders.
