Paul Krugman ...
selected as an American Made Hero!

AmericanMadeHero.com!
Mr. Krugman quote from below video: "At this point, it’s hard to see China changing its policies unless faced with the threat of similar action — except that
this time the surcharge would have to be much larger, say 25 percent."
Quotes regarding Chinese currency manipulation:
"There are a lot of people who still talk about this issue as if it were 2005, as if we were in a normal economic
environment, a normal environment in terms on monetary policy. We're not."
Paul Krugman quote: "What is new is the scale of it. There has never been anything like what is happening now with
China. Never has there been
this drastic a misalignment, never has there been intervention on this scale to keep their currency undervalued."
"We are at the stage where we have to be talking about treating this as if it were countervailing duty case, as if the
Chinese were subsidizing their exports to the tune of 25% to 30% ... and if there is no ability to get anything without
bringing out the baseball bat then you do talk about temporary, across the board tariffs on imports from China. There comes
a point when you have to say that without a credible threat you are not going to get anywhere with negotiations. I don't
like it but, realistically, the chance that this will trigger a trade war are very small and it is hard to see any other
alternative."

"Not only the wealth, but the independence and security of a country, appear
to be materially connected with the prosperity of manufacturers. Every nation ... ought to endeavor to possess within
itself all the essentials of a national supply. They comprise the means of subsistence, habitation, clothing and
defense ... The expediency of encouraging manufactures in the United States, which was not long since deemed very
questionable, appears at this time to be pretty generally admitted."

Does America Need Manufacturing?
"To a large extent our government has not yet realized that the self-interests of our corporations, especially our large

motivations of corporations to align with those of our country
