             AMERICAN TAXES SUPPORTING CHINESE DICTATORSHIP

  (Mr. TRAFICANT asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. TRAFICANT. Mr. Speaker, the trade representative is all excited 
about her new deal with China. I must ask my colleagues, is she a 
masochist, or what?
  Check this out. American cars will have a 25 percent tariff and all 
American goods will average a 17 percent tariff. Meanwhile, Chinese 
cars and all of their other products will average a 2 percent tariff. 
Unbelievable. Monty Hall could have made a better deal for us.
  There must be one explanation only, Mr. Speaker. This administration 
must be in bed with the Chinese, because right now, our tax money is 
propping up a Communist dictatorship that has missiles pointed at us as 
I speak.
  Beam me up here. I yield back the danger and stupidity of this most 
recent sweetheart deal for China.
