i like how the US imposed the free market onto everyone else, bit now they are closing theirs for protectionism

Almost like the US are acting in their own interests.

of course, what bothers me is the hipocrisy of making everyone else adopt that shitty freemarket-at-all-costs model when they themselves arent.

Well china is completely anti free market.so I'm actually surprised more countries aren't charging more tarrifs on them. Also, I don't think most major countries are completely protectionist free.

china is being sanctioned to hell because of that, war with them is being discussed by republicans over this.

any country that is does, and most cant survive it.

china is the exception because they are big enough to survive it.
