What foods are you having for the holidays SwabiDabi Octobe 13, 2021 Besides operating a small business Perfect Touch Auto Glass in Richmond, Virginia. It’s getting close to Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas. And all I can think about is the great foods I know I will be munching on. Most of us look forward to Thanksgiving for many of the same reasons: food, family, friends, football, and the freedom of a day off of work . ... According to research, aside from the repast, you can probably plan the rest of your day according to tradition as well.

And although there is much more to the holiday than the feast itself, it is the one meal of the year where if you are planning to celebrate with friends or family, you probably know what you are having.

China Really Does Control The Fate Of The United States SwabiDabi October 10, 2021 In regards to auto glass in Richmond, Virginia foreign parts are unavailable and at high demand. The relationship with China and the Trump administration is differently showing his ass now.

heSEPTEMBER 16, 2021 COMMENTAR What began as a trade war over China’s unfair economic policies has now evolved into a so-called cold war propelled by differing ideologies. U.S.-China bilateral relations took a nosedive in 2018 when then U.S. president Donald Trump’s obsession with trade deficits led him to impose punitive tariffs on China. The tariffs were followed by restrictions on both China’s access to high-tech U.S. products and foreign investments involving security concerns and by allegations of unfair Chinese commercial practices. Despite pleas from the U.S. business community to ease tensions, U.S. President Joe Biden so far has amplified his predecessor’s policies by strengthening anti-China alliances and implementing additional sanctions. Biden now characterizes the U.S.-China conflict as “a battle between the utility of democracies in the twenty-first century and autocracies.” But the logic underpinning the U.S. trade war was flawed, and the more recent, politically dr

One such industry is auto glass manufacturing. The Tariffs Explained in Brief The tariff battle arose out of disagreements between Chinese President Xi Jinping and the administration of President of the United States Donald Trump. When the two nations were unable to come to an agreement over a trade deal, the Trump administration opted to begin imposing a 10 percent tariff on goods imported to the United States from China in certain industries to pressure China into making a deal.
