China’s Shipbuilding Dominance Crushed by the U.S., Sales of Chinese Ships Crash
A document from Washington has proven to be more destructive than any sanctions. On February 21, 2025, the U.S. Trade Representative (USTR) proposed a new fee, charging up to $1.5 million in port fees for Chinese-made ships entering U.S. ports, directly undermining the foundation of China’s shipbuilding industry. The market reaction in March was alarming, as Japanese shipyards swept up global bulk carrier orders, while Chinese shipyards received none. The Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) boast of being a “shipbuilding superpower” was swiftly shattered by this move from the U.S.

"Freedom to Chose." is a great economic series worth a watch by Milton Friedman.
Everything built by China and made in China are junk and fake, We stay away from everything Made in China, from food to manufactured goods.
So, avoid US ports, and serve markets elsewhere and dock elsewhere and expand selling even more into broader worldwide markets.
Europe, Africa, India, Australia, South America….
Are Americans really this st00 pld?
America only has a few ports that can handle large container ships anyway. And American consumer spending is eroding and evaporating quickly.
China unfortunately is going to absolutely destroy the US… and here's why. All they have to do.. and they are doing it…. is doing a rug pull and dumping all their US treasuries, and putting that money anywhere else in the world to get interest payments. And switch over, which they already have done or are in the process of doing, to selling all their products to a broader world wide market…. like more Europe, Africa, India, Australia, and South America. The US consumer market is evaporating anyway… consumers don't have money, and it's going to get worse as this domino effect increases. DJT was an absolute clueless bonehead that set off a series of events that is going to absolutely tank what's left of the house of cards the US government had to meet it's debt interest payments.
Pound in those screws with a hammer? Well it is faster, that's what they want. Quality? Safe? Lasting? ..no. How else will they get orders if the ships last?
Remember, “THEY STARTED THIS”, President Trump is only leveling the game
A toll on Chinese 'made' ships on top of tariffs will sink the Chinese ship building industry. Despite the country of ownership, the ship's name, or the flag registration, these container ships produced in Chinese ship yards are now 'cursed' barges like the hundreds of unused and abandoned 'Liberty Ships' rusting away after WW2. The historical word for Chinese merchant ships was 'Junks'. That term has new meaning in a world of overproduction and under utilization.
Truth is China got what they gave – #19 went around the world and came back to bite you
China has slave labor not peasants.
America first 🇺🇸
Because you can't spell 'existential threat' without Xi. Trump is coming for you, tapeworm.
Haha, this channel is bullshitting again.
The fun part is she doesn't have the proper American accent.
Full of the mixed Chinese American English speaking.
Totally not the American style of speaking.
America has been asleep for decades. And China has been poking us with a stick for decades. Now America has awakened and China is ready to get bit
The CCP had plenty of time to get their act together, they wanna F around, they are about to find out
I am not a fan of Chinese goods. But let’s be realistic. Americans have transferred the responsibility of producing everything to other nations primarily to China. COVID proved how dependent is the US on China on even simple things like masks and tissue paper. Introduction of tariffs on China is going to completely disrupt the current business order and there will be negative effects of that felt on the American population at least for a few years till manufacturers start producing things inside the US.
Classic at 9:33 . . the guy hammering in a screw . . .
We have to bring the market back into US to provide good quality jobs for all the Americans. We, the entire world should start thinking of been independent; to stand up for thenselves.
Outstanding report. The best I've seen in a while. Keep it up!!
Chineses loves to robb expensive ideas from others. Perharps they have created their on karmik destiny.
China steals our land, our labors, our jobs, our technology and technicians, our blueprints and our lives.
And we're supposed to feel sorry for this communist global monopoply thief. Hell they even have a monopoly on deep sea mining.
Get a life and support fair trade, and world peace.
Trump won.
At one time American Steel Ruled the world.
We should be buying all of the piers.
Thanks!
can you eat more and more everyday i mean maybe 3 meals a day plus snacking etc..after which the body says "No more no more " i am stuffed….but China says you gotta consume you gotta buy or else our people who already work at the lowest of wages …will get unemployed what do they do ?????…..so China has to stop producing and selling and the USA has to stop eating consuming buying less and less….this is just a tea-shop talk not the "Wisdom" of World Economists
At 09:32… Is hammering in screws a standard in Chinese building practice?? I need to know.
As a person who works on ship and know the difference between Chinese – Korean – Japan build quality differences. It is such a good news for seafarers. 🎉
So when will The American left start feeling bad for China?
It's hard to know what's going on when allies to the US report one thing and the rest of the world reports the exact opposite.
Who gives a toss about China. They certainly don’t give a toss about anyone else, unless they can get money out of them.
Dam dude the entire planet is pissed at chyna
Steal our tech. Hack our systems. Get what's due you. Booo Hoooo. Winnie the Pooh Xiping might have to lose some weight once he can't afford all the snacks.
Wtf is our flag upside down
Translation. Administrative costs = kickbacks + bribes + corruption.

How much 💰 🤑 went inside their personal bank 🏦 accounts when previous US presidents exported all these jobs and left American laborers to rot ⁉️

These are so informative
Now they are free to make more ships for the Chinese Navy (PLAN). 😂😂😂.
Japanese make better quality ships then Chinese tofoo ships aint worth the it for the price china has nothing but crap to offer
Trump is stopping the import to USA, of China’s Maoist Economy, Second Maoist Great Leap Forward 2 and Market Culture Revolution 2; at the expense of USA Market Consumerism and Economy Jobs lost
A global wide lesson that crime doesn't pay.
All this Chinese crap floating around the world is no more!
Arrogant communist president who thinks he can threaten President Trump?
You think his .80 cents an hour slave force is going to take it up the ass?!!!
CCP stands for cheap Chinese products !
