It was only last year that patent trolls were conceptually classified as extortionists.
citation please other wise google china's copyright infringements
even you most liberal news rags are getting this story correct.. you seem to live in a world set apart from known reality.
what's worse, this isn't some rando rogue company.. all of China's biggest corporations are not family/stock holder owned. they are owned by the state. a benfit of living as a communist..
All other smaller companies are state sanctioned businesses. you may have started a business but it's like being in with the mob. the mob really controls everything and the owner is little more than mid management. meaning you can't do or sell anything that competes with a state run company. otherwise those products gets transfered to state run production... meaning all the crap we send over to china to get built... like critical or top secrete drone parts.. are being built by the communist state of china. Now that they have the secrets of our stealth drones which have a military grade copyright protection, do you think it will stop them from using said information to compile their own counter measures?
If you were to wake up one day, that is or always has been the issue with doing business with china, as they try and lay claim to being a super power.

So lazy, why don't you go look it up for yourself before you start babbling about china and The Great Man?
What top secret this and that's do you think that we manufacture in china..or did you not look that up either?

I love AOC so far. But dude, she's only been on our radar for a few months. I want to see how things are going to go with her for a few years before deciding that she should be president. Right now, she is more celebrity politician than leader. Also, the Democratic Party would probably spawn a bunch of NeverAOCers. Her allegiance is to the Justice Democrats, and those guys are all about making war on the Democratic Party by challenging centrist Dems in primaries. Their objective is to completely replace congress with Justice Dems by challenging incumbent Dems. I'm not sure how it would work out, having a presidential nominee who is a member of a faction that is openly at war with the party.
I am also a little worried that Warren doesn't have what it takes to slug it out in a presidential election. I love Warren almost as much as I love Bernie Sanders. But she has never fought for election in a place that wasn't deep blue. She knows more about the politics and mechanics of her own party than she knows about slugging it out with a Republican in a competitive race. Hillary had exactly that same problem. She has never won a competitive race. She won her senate seat pretty much by the anointment of the New York Democratic Party.
If beating Donald Trump is the one thing that we want for sure, then the smart money would probably bet on Sherrod Brown. The odds of him beating Trump are generally considered to be right around one hundred percent.

I did couldn't find anything that related to your point... which makes me think you are making shite up or you think something that is going on that is not. so I am asking you to stop waisting my time with fake news or show me where you go your bs idea from.

You check anywhere other than two feet up your own trump-branded asshole? Still waiting to hear what top secret this and thats you think are being manufactured in china, or why you think that ip laws are a non-entity in china, or some lucid explanation of what there is to gain from breaking the back of one of the most populous countries on earth, soon to become downright hegemonic (again) in it's own right, regardless of what we do in our own short sighted ignorance - that we're joined at the hip with.

I agree totally. I absolutely love the way Warren is bringing it right now, and she has the potential to be a real strong female leader-- American Thatcher, but with much better values.
But I'm not convinced that enough Americans would vote for her.

The campaign against her pretty much writes itself, that's for sure.

What vapid fuckery is this? Are you already spinning a narrative about who and what to blame if she loses? Got some ready made excuses, do you?

Warren's the only Democratic frontrunner I've come close to "feeling" thus far...But I honestly don't think she stands snowball's chance in hell at defeating Trump.
I'm not convinced that anyone else in the current crop of potential Democratic candidates stands a remarkably better chance at pulling it off either.
My god, is there really NO ONE ELSE who's willing to throw their hat in the ring? Because at this point, it seems that 2020 is staging to be another fucking disaster for the Dems.
I hope I'm wrong.
