I don't think we should be allowing any country who doesn't impose term limits on their heads of state to have access to our economy. That goes as well for countries who don't allow a legitimate opposition party to exist. These tyrants can play the long game against us, waiting for a U.S. regime they can work with or worse, one they can buy. Meanwhile, they feed off of our economy and actively work against us at the same time.

This is obviously easier said than done because China falls in to that category and manufactures the vast majority of goods for us and you can't cut that off cold turkey. Manufacturing will never come back fully to our service based economy, but some of it does need to come back and we also need to find other, less hostile nations that would see the benefit in bolstering their economy by taking on some of our manufacturing needs. Spread the risk around by not having it all come from one country, but instead from several in relatively similar percentages, if possible.
