Should the U.S continue to trade with china or should they stop trading until china fixes their human rights? why?

It would be wonderful to have a country in the world that
knows what is best for the world, wants to ensure that the world does what is best for
it, and is in a position to force the world to do this. If USA meets all the three of
the above criteria, it should definitely meddle in the way China or any other countries
governs itself and enforce its views and will on all of
them.


However, as things stand now, USA falls short of all
the three requirements. Most certainly is not right all its views of how to manage the
world. Many a times it is proven to be wrong in managing its own internal affairs also.
There are enough human right violation and practice of racial discrimination in USA
also. Also I am not sure to what extent USA is more interested in good of the entire
world rather than its own. Finally, USA has been quite unable to control other countries
the way it wants. One example that comes to my mind is its inability to to ensure that
some of the arms and other aids it gives to some of the countries are no used for
conducting terrorist attacks.


There is no harm if
selectively USA refuses to to trade in some of commodities with some of the countries in
the name of human right violation. However it is not going to be in the interest of the
USA to apply this rule too strictly.
